With Me Now

(album: Secret Ladder - 2014)

You've known me forever
But you don't know me well
I was on the sidelines
Every time you fell
And I watched the bastards break your heart
And never give a damn
I've finally seen enough so here I am

Ah but what could be my chances
With a girl like you
I don't look too fancy
I don't live the way you do
So I guess it's tough to imagine me
This perfect kinda guy
But I've got to make this move or I may die

Is there nothing I can do darling
Is there nothing I can say
Is there nothing I can do darling
To make you wanna stay
Here with me now
Maybe

I don't know how to say this
I'm a nervous wreck
But I know your lonely laughter
And the sweet curve of your neck
And I'm pretty sure I know the woman
That you've come to be
And I know that if she'd have me
She'd be everything to me

Is there nothing I can do darling
Is there nothing I can say
Is there nothing I can do darling
To make you wanna stay
Here with me now
Maybe

I've already held you tight
And we've already talked all night
I have brought you comfort
On your darkest day
All my sad rehearsing
Please don't turn away

Is there nothing I can do darling
Is there nothing I can say
Is there nothing I can do darling
To make you wanna stay
Here with me now
Maybe

Is there nothing I can do darling
Is there nothing I can say
Is there nothing I can do darling
To make you wanna stay
You're with me now
Baby
