Can I be there when you need someone Without being the one you need Cause I know I can't be right for you When nothing's right with me I just need to know that I can And need you to know that I might Just leave You're a lightning bug I'm a bug light Or worse, I'm just like a kid That keeps on catching fireflies But forgets to put holes in the lid For now, my jar seems to be enough But the sticks and the leaves will eventually wither And you will still be stuck In the meantime I'll still be there When you tell me you can't sleep Kiss your forehead in the morning Pull the blanket back over your feet Always knowing I would But starting to doubt that I could Just leave So I'm Holding my breath While I wait for the day When you decide what you want me to be But the time we have left Is dependent upon You knowing that will never be me So I'm holding my breath While I wait for the day When you realize what a mistake You had made When you found yourself here in the first place Well if that day never comes Then I guess I'll never leave But if it does, then please Don't say I didn't warn you I know I didn't warn you Please stop saying I didn't warn you I don't need reminded that I didn't warn you
