It?s Important to Me


You know it?s what I?ve always wanted. You know exactly how I feel
You know I?ve never tried to hide it. Now it looks like it might be for real.

You know I?ve always done it safely. You know I?ve played by all the rules.
You know I?ve tried to make you happy. So please don?t make me play the fool.

Well as this dream comes into view. . . resentment creeps all over you.
So tell me what you gonna do . . . if I start reachin? and hopin? ?

Now I can feel it. Now I can see it. I can almost taste it . . .
Why can?t you see . . . it?s important to me ?

I know you think that I?m a liar. I know you wish that I could change.
I know I?m not what you envisioned. How could our love become so strange ?

But when the walls come crashing down, you know I?ll always be around
To get you back on solid ground, if you need me or want me to.

You know I?ve promised. . . . well let?s be honest.
You kept your distance. . . . why did you ??

Now I can feel it. Now I can see it.
I can almost taste it . . . Why can?t you ?
We could be flyin?. . . instead we?re crying. . .
Got to keep on trying . . . to break through.
Why can?t you see . . . it?s important to me ?
Why can?t you see . . . it?s important to me ? Why can?t you see ?
