Pictures on the walls and on the subway cars Remind me of the thoughts that left me with a scar Mixed emotions, meeting strangers on the stairs With every step I take I'm surrounded by despair Sometimes I feel it's like a cell for me And you're the only one to ever break me free Can I tell you that I love you Can I tell you that I care Cause you're the only one who truly talks to me Can I tell you that I need you Can I say that it's ok If you need a little time to Get used to me 2x This love that I Have for you, it never changes Writing love songs more than a hundred pages Seeing all the new places, meeting all the new faces Not just words, not just phrases We'll break free from cages Just smile baby, you're an angel Grow wings on the back and then fly so high Can I take your hand and can I call you mine? Can I tell you that I love you Can I tell you that I care Cause you're the only one who truly talks to me Can I tell you that I need you Can I say that it's ok If you need a little time to Get used to me 2x I don't know if I can wait For you to come and save me from it all Should I be the one to change If I make it through the day Can I tell you that I love you Can I tell you that I care Cause you're the only one who truly talks to me Can I tell you that I need you Can I say that it's ok If you need a little time to Get used to me Can I tell you that I love you Can I tell you that I care Cause you're the only one who truly talks to me Can I tell you that I need you Can I say that it's ok If you need a little time to Get used to me 2x
