I think I fall in love with people,
A little too much.
Just in the way they sound at 4am,
Or how they look when they smile.
And it's so addicting,
When their eyes light up,
Because you've remembered something,
They may have said.
I think I grow attached,
To people, who I know, will leave,
But I can't help it,
Because I see all that you are,
When you don't really see it yourself.
And sometimes I wonder,
How someone's heart grows so cold,
And think that may be it's because,
For a while it was left out in the rain.
I'm always the one still standing there,
With an umbrella,
Just big enough,
To cover your heart.
