Nothing Means Everything To Me

 

You mess with my head

-don’t you see-

You’re the only one I’ve wanted,

but you’re too good for me.

You speak plainly but in riddles

Or maybe that’s what I want them to be

Because your words don’t mean anything,

but to me they mean everything

Yeah they mean everything to me.

And weird how it seems to be

that the history of you and me

Is just miscommunications

and weak justifications.

But you make it impossible to let go

with your words that mean nothing,

but to me they mean everything,

Yes they mean everything to me.

You say that it was my mistake

But what mistake did I make

that wasn’t made already

when my heart became yours to take.

All I can do is wait ‘till this ride is over

Till you just take me, baby

or just let me be maybe

(Till baby you take me

or maybe you let me be)

Maybe when you said it you meant it

I don’t give myself enough credit

And yeah I know I’m admired by

-but I don’t want to be desired by-

by anyone but you, you know

And they’re all putting on their show.

I don’t need you but I want you

I don’t know you, but I feel you, baby.

You speak your words that mean nothing

but mean everything to me

And that silent space between us

pushes me farther from where I should be.

All the words I should have said

can’t find their way out of my head

In my quiet fascination I see you

the way I wish you’d see me too

But I can’t tell you how I feel, ‘cause baby,

what if you hear my words, and maybe

What if to you they mean nothing,

when to me they mean everything…

Yeah they mean everything to me.
