Love-ridden,
i will look at you,
with the focus i gave to my birthday candles,
i've wished on the little blue flames,
under your brow,
and baby i wished for you.
nobody sees when you are lying in your bed,
and i wanna crawl in with you, but i cry instead.
i want your warmth, but it will only make me colder when it's over,
so i can't deny, baby.
no, not baby anymore.
if i need you, i'll just use your simple name.
only kisses on the cheek from now on,
and in a little while we'll only have to wave.
my hand won't hold you down no more,
the path is clear to follow through.
i stood too long in the way of the door,
and i've given up on you.
