lyrics

You ask
I gave
You mad
I cave into your needs
You leave
I go
It's always so tumultuous

Don't tell me
Automatically
I wanna hear it from your heart
I'm wary
Giving all of me when
It feels like we might part

This could be like Paradise
But you're playing
Tell me what you're feeling and don't
Be the one

Then once
I let uou go
You flowed
Right back to me
It doesn't seem fair
That you finally see
What this could be
After you lose me

Don't tell me
Cause it's hard to hear
That you've had a change of heart
I'm wary
Letting go my fear
'Cause I knew right from the start

This could be like paradise
But you're playing
Do you really want this life?
Whatcha sayin?
This could be like paradise
I can see it
Tell me what you're feelin
And don't be the one that's leading me on

I was ready to fall
Ready to give
All of my heart
All of myself to you
You seemed hesitant
Distant
You were not ready
You couldn't see what I saw
You didn't want what I want
And now it's all over.

Now
There's an urgency inside, inside
'Cause you think you're losing all your grip
You don't wanna see me with someone else
It's so unfortunate 'cause

This could be like paradise
But you're playing
Do you really want this life?
Whatcha sayin?
This could be like paradise
I can see it
Tell me what you're feelin and don't
Be the one that's leading me on
