Baby
I know that if I touched you right now I would break
Or I would melt like snowflake
Or I would float away like a balloon
And then pop
Out there
In the atmosphere
Before I ever made it to the moon
Baby
You are the pebble I carry in my shoe
Each time I take a step towards him I think of you
Because you're the first one
The only one
And I only walked away from you because I was so ashamed
That I couldn't love you the way you loved me
Baby
With you there are no equals signs
There's no math at all
You plus me or me plus you doesn't equal anything
It equals everything and nothing and something
Because all I know is how much you love me
And usually that equals me owing you something
But I don't
I don't
Because there are no equal signs in those beautiful blue eyes
There's only understanding
And it makes me cry
Because usually it's so easy
To give back equal to what I'm given
But there are no equations with you
And all I know is that I am left with a debt I can't pay
And all I want to do is say that I'm sorry
I am sorry
I am sorry
That can't give you everything you try to give me
That I can't take what you try to give me because
You give me your everything
And if I tried to give you my everything that equation would be so unbalanced that every mathematician would stare in disgust
Because it's like trying to make infinity equal one
Darling, you are infinite, your love is abundant
And I am only one
I am only a whole
only 100%
And that's not enough
So baby,
I'm on my knees
begging and pleading for you to take my apology
but you won't
you won't
because you tell me you don't need an apology
And that I've already been forgiven.
