i wish i was a watch wrapped around your wrist
ticking to tell you the time, hands that always twist
we'd relish every second, no moment would be missed
and when bedtime came, you'd just take me off
i wish i was a pen you kept in your desk drawer
setting your work station up and writing your encore
you could hold me in your hand and words would outpour
and when the work was done, you'd just put me down
but if I get too close
will the magic fade?
would I turn you off or away?
if I pull you in
would I push you out
of something here you care about?
i'm at a loss for what to do
i'm drawn to you
i wish i was a blanket tossed upon your bed
you would cuddle up with my woven thread
i would keep you warm from your toes to head
and i would hold you as you drift off
but if I get too close
will the magic fade?
would I turn you off or away?
if I pull you in
would I push you out
of something here you care about?
i'm at a loss for what to do
i'm drawn to you
i'm not a pen
i'm not a cover
i'm not a wrist watch
i'm something other
i wrote you this song cuz i'm your lover
will you take it?
will you keep it?
will you read it?
believe it
i love you
forever
