|
A thousand pages all about you in a darkened room |
|
A thousand questions I have asked you, like a 5-year-old |
|
A hand over my mouth, still questions pop out |
|
The city was a sparkling diamond, but a hidden secret kept under her sweaty T-shirt |
|
In the salty water |
|
A hand over my eyes, still I can see it all |
|
I meant to dress you up in words |
|
And paint a picture of our love |
|
But the memory is fading and soon you'll be gone |
|
You came and you left my life in a shadow |
|
Every morning I would walk through empty parks |
|
Just as the sun came up to kill the dark |
|
Biting my tongue to keep the screams down |
|
And I felt like an empty shell, I was not myself |
|
Not who I used to be when you walked with me |
|
Something about you made me complete |
|
I meant to be there when you fell |
|
I meant to be steady and calm |
|
I thought I was hardened, I thought I was strong |
|
But you came and you left my life in a shadow |
|
Take my longing, drown it in the sea, it's just a memory of something never meant to be |
|
Not for me |
|
And I will be quiet when I've asked the questions I need |
|
And there's a thousand pages all about you in a darkened room |
|
A thousand questions I have asked you, like a 5-year-old |
|
A hand over my eyes, still I can see it all |
|
Take care, don't mess yourself up |
|
I'm still waiting for our roads to cross |
|
And I won't be angry, I know it'll pass |
|
You came and you left my life in a mess |
