Stand Too Close

If I stand too close I might fall in But if I’m too far gone I’ll never win If you believe in me I might just want to spend some time with you again I’m afraid I tend to disappear Into an anxious state when you draw near There is no reasoning it’s quite a silly thing But it’s the way I’ve been for years So I will understand if you don’t stay They say I’m great at first but then the magic fades Into an awful you of dismal views and pessimistic attitude All this distance years of sweet resistance Swirling over head like angry clouds of discontent ( ) (3x) ( ) I have apologised a billion times When I’ve gone off the wall like Busta Rhymes And pulled a stupid stunt that left you thinking there was something wrong with me you’ve thrown a few choice phrases at my way And I’ve ignored them all as best I could Except that tiny bit how I just can’t commit There is some truth in what you say All this distance years of sweet resistance Swirling over head like angry clouds of discontent If I stand too close I might fall in But if I’m too far gone I’ll never win If you believe in me I might just want To spend some time with you again I spent some time with you again ( ) (3x) ( ) If I stand too close I might fall in But if I’m too far gone I’ll never win If you believe in me I might just want To spend some time with you again
