MISREADING by EMILIE NORWOOD
I didn’t mean or ask for this to happen
Love crept up and caught me in its rapids
To tell the truth I never thought it would be you
Now everything's awkward and complicated too
The silence and distance is driving me mad
I always think I've done something bad
Everyday hurts like torture
Are we still friends I'M NOT SURE!
Chorus:
There's nothing you can do or say
To make me want to walk away
I'm in for the long haul
I'm going to give it my all
You may think that all of this
Is only sweet nothingness
You may think I'm a freak
But, boy, you're misreading me
I think there's something we’re not getting
I just want love, boy, not a wedding
I think you might've misread my intentions
I do apologize for the miscommunication
If you don't want me around just give the say so
But let it be known that I WON'T GO!
Chorus
If you're going to try to get rid of me
I can tell you now that it won't be easy
Patience and Persistence are my forte
And pain isn't going to dissuade me
You can be sweet or you can be cruel I don't care
But I can tell you that I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE!
Bridge:
I'm not going to give up
I'm never going to back down
No matter how tough the game gets
I'm gonna stand my ground
You can run so fast so far away
But when you return I'll be waiting
I'm your friend first that hasn’t changed!
Chorus
