You bring your coat in from the rain I pour the coffee, ask about your day You tell me something, make me smile And everything feels right for a little while We sit together like we always do There's still a part of me that reaches for you But I can feel the tension in the air Before I've even said what's on my mind I choose my words, I watch my tone Somehow I'm wrong before I've even spoken I love you, but I'm not happy I'm tired of always taking blame For things I said, for things I didn't Somehow it all comes back the same I hold your hand, I mean it too There's still so much I love in you But I can't keep losing myself Just trying to keep the peace with you We take the long way past the store Talk about the way things were before You laugh about some little thing And for a moment, I forget everything But then a word becomes a fight And somehow I'm the one who's never right I try explaining what I meant But every sentence turns against me again Sometimes I just want to be heard Without defending every little word I love you, but I'm not happy I'm tired of always taking blame For things I said, for things I didn't Somehow it all comes back the same I hold your hand, I mean it too There's still so much I love in you But I can't keep losing myself Just trying to keep the peace with you I don't need to win an argument I don't need you to lose I just want to say what's on my mind Without everything becoming proof That I'm the reason something's wrong That I've been wrong all along We've spent too many years together To keep living like we're against each other I love you, but I'm not happy And now you know the reason why I miss the days when we could talk Without another battle in our lives I hold your hand, I mean it too I still see the woman I fell for in you But I need some peace between us And a little room to be myself too I love you... You know I do... But sometimes... I just want to breathe Without doing something wrong I love you But I'm not happy Santiago Flores
