Short Love - Ellison

This is for all the girls

Who never got to know me

And who touched these lips

But never really got a kiss

And who held my hands

And maybe even learned a few things

But unfortunately

You didn’t learn a lot about me

And I tried my best to give you what

You wanted most but it wasn’t enough

And short love you gave up

Too soon on me

And short love you messed up

One too many times before me

Why are you so scared

To have some insecurities?

Why are you so scared

To turn and face me?

At least look at me

I tried my best to give you what

You wanted most but it wasn’t enough

But I’m not good with words in these kinds of situations

Now I know neither are you

So we’ll forget what we just said

I’ll take that back and you hold your breath

And you just wait and see

But you know this is the last time that you will see me

And you know this is the last time that you will see me
