Feel

At the edge of daylight

One evening in the fall

You’re the one who caught me

Clearly through it all


I’ve tried hard to remind you

Of everything we’ve shared

But you don’t remember anything

And it kinda makes me scared that


I could write a song about how I feel

But it wouldn’t change anything at all

‘Cause I’m used to writing just to forget

But I’m stuck with you dancing here in my head


Years on down the road now

Here we are again

Can’t stop myself from thinking

Of what I should have said


And if I said those same things

Just how would you respond

Would it make a difference to you

Or not


I could write a song about how I feel

But it wouldn’t change anything at all

‘Cause I’m used to writing just to forget

But I’m stuck with you dancing here in my head


I doubt you’ll ever hear this

And even if you did

You’d probably never realize

You’re the one in it


I heard it from a friend

Just the other week

That you’re in love with someone

And he isn’t me


So I’ll just write a song about how I feel

Though it’ll never change anything at all

‘Cause I’m tired of writing just to forget

And I wish you would dance with me


I could write a song about how you feel
