You told me that you liked me
you told me it would be ok
as you ripped my heart
right out of my chest

we were two people
in the same car-
so close yet so utterly far-
we both wanted each other
but you resisted
you walked away

I asked, what now?
you said we couldn’t even be friends
because it would be too hard for you
because you want me too much
so why leave?

Please Clay
be honest
please tell me
if you want me
why are you walking away?

I want you too
please don’t do this
please don’t walk away
when deep down you want to stay
please just hold me
please just stay.
