Dominic Caudill - Can't You?

I came with the assumption that
Tonight I would be functioning but
You- you're here, so all bets are off
Can't you tell I'm hanging onto
Every word that's leaving your mouth
And finding ways to make them about me
I would guess that I'm projecting
What I want on what I can see
But what do I know anyway?
I place my weight on one heel at a time
I'm swaying under your spell
Or maybe I'm just dizzy
No, I think there's something in you
And something in me that wants it so damn bad
And if you'd only let me put my finger on it
I know we'd both be glad
When I'm all alone, my thoughts decay
Into thinking of cool shit I could say
But when you're finally here
I know it's best to wait, wait, wait, wait
I'm hoping that your subtleties are
Secret keys to open a door
But maybe I'm afraid of walking through it
Can't you tell I'm sweating through my
Skin I'm barely keeping it together
I'm soaked through to the bone
I feel your eyes upon me like a
Coat on when it's snowing
But the coat can read my mind and the snow knows what I'm feeling
I'll tell you that I'm thinking what I'm
Thinking without using my mouth
Or maybe using it in a different way
Now sing me to sleep
With words you learned pursuing your degree
And I'll pretend that I know what you mean, oh
And maybe tonight
If cards are played correctly
We'll be a new species
An eight-legged monstrosity
A spider whose nest
Is a bed in the night
Oh, we'll split back in two
At first sunlight
Can't you see I'm yours?
Can't you see I'm yours?
Can't you see I'm yours?
