The Scientist

Come up to meet you,
Tell you I'm sorry,
You don't know how lovely you are.
I had to find you,
Tell you I need you,
Tell you I set you apart.

Tell me your secrets,
And ask me your questions,
Oh let's go back to the start.
Runnin' in circles,
Comin' up tails,
Heads on the science apart.

Nobody said it was easy,
It's such a shame for us to part.
Nobody said it was easy,
No one ever said it would be this hard.
Oh take me back to the start.

I was just guessin',
At numbers and figures,
Pullin' the puzzles apart.
Questions of science,
Science and progress,
Do not speak as loud as my heart.

Tell me you love me,
Come back and haunt me,
Oh on I rush to the start.
Runnin' in circles,
Chasin' our tails,
Comin' back as we are.

It hit me last night. I cried. But now I know that you are making a smart decision and I just want you to be happy. It's going to be a tough start, but when you pull through, it will be worth it. Trust me.

The start of the day was rough for me. I still had those words engraved in my brain. My head was full of song lyrics that made me angry because they tormented me. The Scientist was my relief. I don't know why but it made me forget. I left for the day with my heart still heavy. It lightened with the presence of others that make my life so enjoyable. That is why it's hard for you, isn't it? Well, I am telling you, you are not alone. And soon it will seem silly that you thought that.
