What Can I Say?

about

When love gets lost.

lyrics

Love,
where have you gone?
I haven't seen you
in quite some time.
You
seem to be lost
you don't know what you need,
or if you can be mine...

So what can I say?
How can I bring you back?
What kind of bitterness waits for me
on the other end of the phone?
Do you still want me?
Can you accept my love?
Can I just sit with you,
and not feel I'm alone?

I
don't know how
you got this far
without reaching out.
You
you're mad at me now
'cause I'm not letting you
just shut me out...

So what can I say?
How can I bring you back?
What kind of bitterness waits for me
on the other end of the phone?
Do you still want me?
Can you accept my love?
Can I just sit with you,
and not feel I'm alone?

And I don't want to play along with this
I know you too well to fall for the empty happiness
This is a game I refuse to play
There's no winner either way...

I said
I wanted to talk to you
but really I wanted you
to just look me in the eye
Sit with me,
just let me be with you
nothing we need to do,
yeah that's what I'd like.
Nothing but me and you,
would that be alright?

But what could I say?
I'll never bring you back
What kind of bitterness
waits for me
on the other end of the phone?
Say you still want me
Say you'll accept my love
Just let me sit with you,
and know I'm not alone...
Nothing we need to do,
we'll not be alone...
