Do not pull me in any closerBecause people like meLove too deeplyFor I would write about youUntil my hands acheAnd bleedAcross the page

Do not pull me in any closerBecause people like meLove too deeplyFor I would write aboutThe warmth of your arms,The crook of your neckFeeling more like home than the home I had created myself

Do not pull me in any closerBecause people like meLove too deeplyWe will bare our souls to youOver a cup of coffeeBut forgetYour love of tea

Do not pull me in any closerBecause people like meLove too deeplyWe will give you our flesh and bonesBuild a home for youInside of usWithout you asking us to

Do not pull me in any closerBecause people like meLove too deeplyWe will learn to love the sound of your voiceAnd the way our fingers intertwine perfectlyBut will grieveWhen you choose to leave us

Do not pull me in any closerBecause people like meLove too deeplyWe will love you like the oceanBut will only drown youIn the end

Do not pull me in any closerBecause people like meLove too deeplyAnd cant love you any lessThan you deserveEven if our love pulls you under our currentsLeaving you gasping for air

Do not pull me in any closerBecause people like meLove too deeplyWhen you chooseTo no longer hold ourHearts within youWe think the only solution is to love you harder

Do not pull me in any closerBecause people like meLove too deeplyFor you to hold on to

So hey dont pull me in any closer
