Nothing but a tear, that's all for breakfast

Watching you pretend you're unaffected

You're pulling our connections, expecting me to let you go

But I won't

I know you don't need my protection

But I'm in love, can't blame me for checking

I love in your direction, hoping that the message goes

Somewhere close to you

Close to you

Like so close if they hurt you, you wouldn't find out

Just say now, I'm coming right now to be close to you

Said you let it go, you kept it

Working hard to perfect it

But now your fear is reckless, and it's out of your control

Well just let it go

I know you don't need my protection

But I'm in love, can't blame me for checking

I love in your direction, hoping that the message goes

Somewhere close to you

Close to you

Like so close, if they hurt you, you wouldn't find out

If you let me, I'd be there by now

Close to you
