THERE'S ALWAYS HOPE... (I HOPE...)

in all innocence
so open and free
and yet so afraid
to open for me
cuz it feels too good
somewhere you've never been
a forbidden place
that you long to see

something never touched
that screams for caress
something never held
that begs for embrace
something I can see
when you look at me
in all innocence
the look on your face

feelings driving me crazy
feelings compel me to stare
feelings make me want to run away
from feelings... these feelings right here

  am I trembling...
  am I numb...
  am I feeling...
am I dumb
to be this afraid
to be wanting more
to be so amazed
to be so unsure

in all innocence
I don't know what to do
I want so much
to move closer to you
cuz it feels so good
will I lose control
will I ever be the same
will I lose my soul

are you teasing me
am I teasing you
I don't mean any harm
I don't know what is true
I can barely breath
I don't know where I am
in all innocence
do you understand?

feelings driving me crazy
feelings seem to stop time
feelings paralyzing me
what feelings... these feelings are mine

  is my heart beating...
  are you laughing at me...
  am I being a fool...
am I trapped or free
is this fantasy
is this something more
is this just silly
is this what life's for

in all innocence
I'm a mouse that wants to roar
what have you done to me
I am changing at my core
and I'm starting to babble
am I making any sense
I am losing my grip
with all my confidence
and it feels like...
  nothing I've ever felt before
in all innocence
I want something more
I'm afraid of more
what is more
where is more
is this more?

feelings driving me crazy
feelings taking my breath
feelings blowing me away
... feelings... like life and death

  why can't I move...
  and why don't you...
  could you feel the same...
don't know what to do
should I scream
should I cry
will I live
will I die

if I keep finding words to say
  will this feeling go away...
