Teach Me, by itty bitty Subscribe to rss feed for itty bitty

As you drift off to sleep
You can see things I can't
I tell you a tell a story
To keep you at bay
This story is whispered
To keep you asleep
It might teach me something new

I'm watching you sleep
So you stay nice and warm
Hoping I don't leave
Your side tonight
You don't belong here
But you seem to know
That I can't live without you

Welcome to Earth, 
Now, you're part of the show
Spinning and dancing
For people unknown
You don't understand 
What is going on
Gently, I whisper to you while asleep

Don't be afraid to cry
Don't be afraid 
To let me know tonight

I told you I loved you
That much sure is true
But now I am wondering
What about you
You say agree with me
Heart, mind, and soul
But you need to let me know

You need to show me
That you love me, too
It's not just an act
But it's true feelings, too
It may teach you something new

Drawing me closer
Then pushing me back
Playing me
Puppet-like
What is that
Ignoring me
Twisting me, around your finger

What the hell is that

Don't be afraid
To let me know tonight

Don't be afraid
To make me feel tonight

If you love me, too...
Teach me something new
If your love is true

Don't be afraid to cry

Teach me something new
Another side of you
Teach me...

Something...

Else...
