I don't want love for the wrong reasons
Just to get over you
I want to have a different taste of the champagne that love could pour me
I want to get drunk in love that I only say her name and not yours
I want to make new memories and  let go of ones we had
I don't want to fail her like I did with you
I want to make her the happiest girl in this world
So please get out of my head
For the space in my heart that once belonged to you is now filled with her and there no turning back
Moving on seems hard but I guess if you do, never look back
you move on for real
Deeply asleep
My head on the pillow
That's when you got into my head
Designed a world so beautiful and splendid
I could tell you had read my thoughts and were granting my wish
To make me the luckiest man in the neighbourhood
Blessing me with this serene girl that had all men vying for her attention
She was that art piece at the exhibition that caught everyone's eye
As for me, she caught my everything
I guess, I wanted to jump on a horse and run away with her and never be found
She was the princess I knew would be queen one day
I felt I was unworthy being her king
I wore rugs and wasn't the dashing type
As for me, she had a great fashion flair
She was impeccable no doubt
Probably the perfect score to turn my life around
I love her with no reason
For I believed there would come a season
For me to hold her hand in church one day and never look back
Because then my beautiful dream would have come true
Hope always yields
Holding onto this dream and know it will come true
Knock knock
Fortune knocked at my door one time
I let the stranger in without knowing his name
He said he had walked all through the town looking for me and almost gave up
Somehow he had my address and found me
We had a beautiful conversation
He looked tired and had a lot of luggage that I didn't know how he carried
It was definitely heavy
At first, I was scared that maybe he was carrying a bomb
He turned to my sight and told me "I have a package for you"
In it were blessings
Keys to rooms with everything I wished for
He then said his goodbye and left
I'm just glad I answered the door when the doorbell rang
Everything you desire will surely come to you one day
Just be hopeful and patient
Love was a story everyone told
A song everyone sang
A danger sign on the road and so when you saw it, you had to make a U-turn
And when I met you, it gave me everything
Loving you gave me everything I ever wished for
Reality is scary
The beautiful dream is dying
Like all you had built was an imagination
And now you are no longer on medication
There are so many  tears to shed
Crying until your eyes dry
Wishing you had wings to fly
To escape into a world refined
One with no troubles
One you want to tell a story about
The  architect to give it the design it holds and deserves
But no it's your time to taste
The bitterness  of this world
To drink from the same river animals go to drink
To make a fire and get burnt by it
To hope and never get all you wish for
To stumble and fall but still get up
To unlock all those talents you didn't know you had
To live the life of a poor kid and know it's  no curse
To share the little you have
To know there is always a blessing that comes with giving
Now is the time to shuffle the cards
To mold yourself into one ready for anything
Joy, pain, sorrow, happiness
All lighting on different candles
You have the power to blow out those you don't need
Keep those that light up your life
Now is the time to take the stand of being a man
The story about life
Each bad situation is always a test
However we are masters of our fate and can brighten our sad days
Alleviate the cold in one
Refurbish blood in the vein
