Cover-Blind Romance

The times already short
How could we have ever known
That our true feelings
Were never shown
I know I'm petrified
And I just can't seem to move
But take my hand
And I'm sure I'll make it through

Or maybe it's all inside my head
And maybe it's just me
And wht I wish we were
Can never be
But I feel that somehow
Every time you smile
That everything
Is worth my while

I don't wanna be the guy who looks back later
And sees his life through wishes
In a backwards glance
I don't want to be the thing that stands in our way
I don't want to be affraid
I want to give this a chance
This cover-blind romance

'Cause no one ever got anywhere by wishing through their fingers at the dark night sky...
