It's Different This Time

I going to be honest 

I'm scared of commitment 

I'm scared of that question 

The question that'll change my life in a moment.

I don't want to hurt you 

And I don't want to get hurt 

And what if it costs more than it's worth?

What if it just doesn't work?

And what if we lose everything we've got?

But what if its worth a shot?

How do you know when to stop

To finally just give it all you've got 

To trust with all your heart 

And believe in something that could tear you apart?

Why is it so hard to jump?

Why is it so hard to trust?

Why is it so hard? 

Why?

Dang it! 

The feelings come and go 

One day I'm fine

The next day I'm torn. 

I feel like we can conquer. 

Then I feel like you're not it. 

I feel like I'm desperate and 

That's all this is.

Are we just desperate?

Desperate for someone, 

Someone to hold 

and call our own. 

Can I just fast forward 

To a few years down the road 

When we know what we are 

and where we're to go? 

When I'm either in your arms 

or up the road,

With new people 

and new places to go, 

In a different town

that I'll eventually get to know. 

Can we just get to the point?

Can we skip the wisdom
and the lessons to be taught?

Can we just find our spot 

In each others lives 

Together or not?
