Lyrics

[Verse 1] How do I make you fall in love with me? And how would I let you know I care? And how would I say that the man you're laying with Is not the man that should be laying there? [Verse 2] How would a boy like me put it? A man with some sense probably wouldn't But I don't give a damn, I am not a smart man I'm gonna say some words I shouldn't [Verse 3] And I had a dream I was falling And maybe that's a fucked up metaphor Maybe it just means when I meet you in my dreams Nothing stops me from going through the floor [Chorus] And I know all the bad things about you But I still think you're the purest of our kind I remember being younger with an awful pining hunger For a good that a boy could never find And a fear of a man so left behind So I guess I'll just love you from the window While you're dancing with the charmers in the room And I'll sneak out that door like I have a time before And just let that lost love loom And just let that lost love loom [Verse 4] And how do I make you fall in love with me? Is it lost in the emptiness of apathy? Should I fight for it like war? Should I nail it down to boards? Or do I live in a love I'm dying for? [Outro] How do I make you fall in love with me? And how do I let you know I care? And how would I say that the man you're laying with Is not the man that should be laying there?
