Just sit close to me
close as close gets
and let me warm up to the occasion.
It's been a while since anyones graced my side,
I won't lie, I have no grasp of my intentions.
If you hold my hand I'll open up
but please don't ask me to speak my mind.
We could share stories of the scars left by love,
but why bring up despair?
I've learned all I can from holding on
and only just learned how to let it go.
So sit close to me and let the heat build like flame to a coal.
