Unrequited Symphony: Love's Struggle in Topeka Clementine's iGuess
Lyrics
I guess I'm just not surprised by much of anything
I am not easily surprised by most things.
I guess I just get too fond of all the little things
I become attached to small, insignificant details.
You're stringing me along
You are leading me on.
Whistling your pretty little songs
You are happily singing your charming songs.
And I tried so hard to shake you
I made an effort to forget you, but the emotion lingers.
But the feeling never quite goes away
Despite my efforts, the feeling persists.
It's the seventh night this week
For the seventh time this week, your dreams invade my thoughts.
Your dreams keep visiting
Your dreams keep recurring.
I guess you're just here to stay
It seems you are here to stay in my thoughts.
And I know that it's wrong
Intellectually, I understand it's not right.
To put you on a pedestal
I place you on a pedestal despite the flaws.
But everything wrong you do is so incredible
Your mistakes are remarkably impressive.
And I would be lying if I said I wasn't in love
I cannot deny being in love with you.
I guess I just wish that you thought that I was enough
I wish you believed I am sufficient for you.
I guess I fuss way too much it was a petty fling
I may overreacted; it started as a trivial affair.
But damn you really fucked me up
Your actions had a significant impact on me.
You got me wondering
Your behavior makes me question my future without you.
How I'll get along
I contemplate how I'll cope without you.
Guess I'll just write you a song
Perhaps expressing my feelings in a song is the solution.
And I tried so hard to shake you
Despite attempts, the feeling of longing persists.
But the feeling never quite goes away
For the seventh time this week, your dreams persist.
It's the seventh night this week
Your dreams visit regularly.
Your dreams keep visiting
It appears your presence in my thoughts is constant.
I guess you're just here to stay
I acknowledge it's not right to elevate you.
And I know that it's wrong
Placing you on a pedestal is morally incorrect.
To put you on a pedestal
Your flaws are strangely attractive.
But everything wrong you do is so incredible
I confess my love for you despite your imperfections.
And I would be lying if I said I wasn't in love
I wish you recognized my adequacy for you.
I guess I just wish that you thought that I was enough
I openly admit my affection for you.
And I've been ducking warning signs
I deliberately ignore warning signs to be closer to you.
Just to get closer to you
My intention is to become more intimate with you.
I could be your valentine
I am willing to be your romantic partner.
But you never make room in your calendar, boo
You never find time for me in your schedule.
And I know that it's wrong
I understand it's not right to idealize you.
To put you on a pedestal
Despite your flaws, they captivate me.
But everything wrong you do is so incredible
I admit my love for you, flaws and all.
And I would be lying if I said I wasn't in love
I am truthful about my love for you.
I guess I just wish that you thought that I was enough
I wish you believed I am sufficient for you.
