I walk into a room and I’m the life the party
Everything seems to be crazy; all the eyes are on me
The spotlight shines on me and I don’t know why
It just happened but I feel dead inside

When I was with you, a sudden smile from me would make you smile
I was me and I was happy but that was a long time ago back a while
I don’t know how I got here but all I know is I need you right next to me
I can’t be happy; I can’t take the spotlight, when I know you’re not at the party

I tell a joke and everyone seems to laugh and have a good time
I’m wondering what you’re doing and why you’re on my mind
The spotlight shines on me, and I don’t know what to say
I’m just wondering in sadness why you had to go away

I remember when I was your one and only clown
I would make you laugh and tear away that frown
But now that’s my job for everyone who’s down
I’m like this superhero that doesn't have his hero around

Money and fame came to me and it made you disappear
Success and fortune wasn't what I wanted, I just wanted you here
I was living everyone’s dream of being this rich lovable guy
But was it really worth the price of dying inside.

My whole life came as a blur
But I fell in love and I will conquer
She came and went like day at night
She confessed to me her wrongs and right

Friends have come but now they’re gone
Felt like I was alone and I did them wrong
But she was the one who listened and stayed
She kept my heart from losing control and going insane

And… I will confess
I was a complete mess
By the girl in the little black dress

This is my revolution and I will fight and fight again
This is my resolution, to store peace back again
It’s a mystery but I will find her in memories
One last shot at hope to believe.

Bring me back together cause I lay in pieces
Like the lonely kid who sits alone at recess
I need her back to understand who I was and am
In need of some help and i'm wishing for her hand

I feared the love that grew over time
I couldn't believe myself I thought it was lie
But now we’re close to the end
If I give up I lose my best friend

I never meant to chase her away
I regret the words that I had to say
I should have gone home and never looked back
Now she’s somewhere else getting back on track

And… I will confess
I was a complete mess
By the girl in the little black dress

This is my revolution and I will fight and fight again
This is my resolution, to store peace back again
It’s a mystery but I will find her in memories
One last shot at hope to believe.

just got fired from my job and can’t pay the bills
couldn’t pay the gas so now I’m feeling the chills
lost all my money to good ol wall street
seems that I’m lost with my two left feet

sitting out in the street making change with my guitar
hoping this talent will try to get me far
I saw the picture of her that I haven’t seen in a while
take a closer look, and it’s just her Smile.....

in good times, bad times her smile was my light
reassure me that everything was alright
she’s miles away but her smile still remains
never to be washed away by the California rain

Now I’m feeling inspired in this ***** situation
under the city lights praying for her lost salvation
lost in her smiles tempting temptation
staring at her life and past and style
reassure me that everything’s alright, just her Smile

I wonder what ever happened to her
did she grow up to be what she wanted to be
did she marry a winner or maybe a loser
where ever she is I hope she’s smiling happily
she was clever and witty, the charm of her smile
and now it’s been a while, since I last saw her style

Now I’m feeling inspired in this ***** situation
under the city lights praying for her lost salvation
lost in her smiles tempting temptation
staring at her life and past and style
reassure me that everything’s alright, just her Smile

You say you want love but are you willing to fight the fight
You talk the talk and you wish upon the stars that shine at night
You’re scorched to the veins in your bleeding heart
Can the truth and the fantasy tear your mind apart?

Set in history as the great couple of Romeo and Juliet
They fell in love but yet died together so don’t you forget
Rose let go of Jacks hand and he swam out into the cold
Love was losing grip she had no choice so she just had to let go

Can’t bare to stand and watch the time get lost in the sun
I can’t be with you and treat your heart as a practice run
I’m not the guy who assumes he’s in love
Don’t want to come off as the guy who only wants to have fun

I remember when i first saw you at that party
You were acting drunk and such a complete hottie
But then I knew you were dangerous like an atom ticking bomb
I had to get out of there before I slowly fell in love

I want to get you out of my head cause you’re haunting me to death
The first time I saw you, you shook my heart and took my breath
I looked into my mirror and saw a lower class idiot with no plans at all
And this is the reason I don’t want to fall in love……

— The End —
