yes it's true
i've gotten very
moody over you

don't think i don't
sense your caution
way across the room

or across the phone lines
big black ocean
conversation brief

we can't find
a clear connection
and i can't get relief

why don't we both agree
we're both afraid
and too afraid to say

if i said
count to three
(count to three)
move toward me
(move toward me)
would you meet me half way (would you meet me)

there are a thousand things about me
i want only you to know
but i can't got there alone
you've got to show

while you occupy me
i command my dreams
each day

to bring you in me
even thinly
as the morning chases you away

i half believe
if i just picture us
we will come true

wishful thinking
or my hopes sinking
half depends on you

why don't we both agree
(why don't we both agree)
we're both afraid
and too afraid to say
(too afraid to say)

if i said
count to three
(count to three)
move toward me
(move toward me)
would you meet me half way (would you meet me)

there are a thousand things about me
i want only you to know
but i can't got there alone
you've got to show me

(show me)
you are fully alive
if you want to fly
take this dive
if you want to kiss
kiss for real
i'll give you back everything you feel

drive and space
that peacful place
you'd be my secret sharer

front and back
and all around
the thin margin of error

ah move to fast
or move to slow
or somewhere in between

or navigate your
perfect distance
your get away is clean

why don't we both agree
that we're both afraid
and we're too afraid to say

if i said
count to three
move toward me
would you meet me half way

cause there are a thousand things about me
i want only you to know
i want only you to know
i want only you to know
but i can't got there alone
you've got to show
