When You Tell Me That You Love Me

When you tell me that you love me
I still feel like I'm alone
Last night I felt your heartbeat
And it felt like coming home

And now my hands are shaking
And now my eyes won't dry
A part of me's still aching
And I know that's not right

Please don't go when I ask you to, I'm
Glad you hung around to take me through, I
I don't know how it will be but it's
Alright now and that's what counts

I wish that I could write you
Countless pages, perfect words
Like you're already another boyfriend
Like I was any other girl

But I'm staring at this blank page
That's staring back at me
And all the words just break the glass 'cause
I really don't know how I feel

Please don't go when I ask you to, I'm
Glad you hung around to take me through, I
I don't know how it will be but it's
Alright now and that's what counts
