Don't Kill the Romantic Inside (Acoustic)

It's the "I love you" type you say to someone you kissed
What do you think we missed
To call it love?

I'm not saying it wasn't pleasant or real
But I know how I feel
Now that these words left your lips

Maybe I don't want the answer to
The question that comes to mind when you
Turn to the future and stop being here
I was taught to always feel

Don't kill the romantic inside
Don't say something like
I'll get there
Just give me time

Don't kill the romantic inside
Don't say something like
I'll get there
It happened so fast

Is there any sense in giving this another try
I keep asking myself why
This feeling had to go this way

I'm sure it was my unreachable idea of love
Hanging over our heads above
Didn't give us a fair chance to thrive

What kind of dice has to be thrown
For someone so helpless to be shown
This kind of daffing can bring you surprise
Please let me dream this feeling is life

Don't kill the romantic inside
Don't say something like
I'll get there
Just give me time

Don't kill the romantic inside
Don't say something like
I'll get there
It happened so fast

Don't kill the romantic inside
Don't say something like
I'll get there
Just give me time
This way one thing I'm certain you'd do
Kill the romantic I hid from you
