Baby, I am having trouble seeing what I wanna see
Lately, having trouble believing this is how you wanna be
Baby, I am having trouble hearing what I wanna hear
When you tell me you’ll sleep, but then I watch you stay awake for a year
So you laugh, laugh it off
You have for so long
Now baby, I am having trouble seeing what I’m supposed to see
When will you slow down?
You can’t remain this way
Here I am dancing around
The things I don’t know how to say
Baby, having trouble understanding how it came to be
Thought I’d help you, didn’t know I was supposed to just accept everything
And I try, but I can’t help it
I cry, feeling selfish
‘Cause baby, now I’m having trouble feeling what I’m supposed to feel
When will you slow down?
You can’t remain this way
Here I am dancing around
The things I don’t know how to say
When will you take care?
Maybe you won’t change for me
Maybe that’s not how -
Maybe that’s not how it’s supposed to be
If I keep you afar
I won’t forget I love you for who you are
If I hide you away
I’ll love you where no one knows I go to stay
When will you slow down?
You can’t remain this way
Here I am dancing around
The things I don’t know how to say
When will you take care?
Maybe you won’t change for me
Baby I’m seeing it now
Baby, we’re not, we’re not supposed to be
