So Little Courage

I want to see you now.

I want to tell you I'm sorry.

I don't need to be forgiven, but I need to apologize.

I want to see you now.

I want to hear you say it again,

That I'm just right, not too fat, not too short;

That I'm just right, that you don't care 'bout my messy hair;

That I'm just right, not too old for you.

I want to hear you say it again,

That I'm just right, and you love me;

That I'm worth all your love and more.

I want to see you now.

I want to pretend things are going on okay for us.

I want to hold your hand, share your lunch.

I want to go into your arms and just stay in there.

I want to see you now.

I want you to stay, I'd kidnap you if I must.

I don't want you to go to Australia.

I don't want you to forget all about me, about us.

And even if you really need to go,

I want to tell you I'll miss you.

So many things I wanna do so bad.

So little courage.
