If You Could Listen

How can I sleep soundly, when I know that you are?
No memories haunt you or hopes left to ponder
No dreams about me that awaken a smile that won't last
That fades out

And I'm stuck with you until I find someone to
Hold the gap that you never filled up but you could've earned
I can't let you go

Part of me wishes that you could just listen to
The way my heart beats when you're within distance
Cause it feels so perfect when we're left alone
But then the moment ends, you go your way
And I'll think of it if we meet again

I debated a text, but if you left me on read
Then I'll know it's the end
Though did it ever commence?
No, cause I'll never know if I was wrong if it could've worked out
You and I

So I'm stuck with you until I find someone to
Hold the gap that you could've filled up but you never earned
I should just let go

But part of me wishes that you could just listen to
The way my heart beats when you're within distance
Cause it feels so perfect when we're left alone
But then the moment ends, you go your way
And I'll think of it till' we meet again

And time has passed, but I look back to when I caught you looking
But then time ran out and you turned back
And I went back to losing sleep
If only I could know for sure
That I'm insane and you're not also holding back
Imagine that: a pair of fools just wasting love

But I, I'll never know
Cause I'm scared the hopes won't hold

(Part of me wishes that you) So many wishes for you
(So many things we could do) And so many things we could do

Cause it would be perfect
It could be so perfect if only I could know

And part of me wishes that I could just listen to
The way your heart beats when I'm within distance
Cause then I would know if it's just mine that hurts
So when the moment ends, you go your way
I'll think of ways to forget you again
