Maybe it's the warmth
Or the delicious aroma of burning meat
But I wanna go to hell
And smell
Don't know where I'm going with this
But oh well,
Time will tell.

It started with a smile
As I walked down the hall
Hard to resist and for you I did fall

So I wrote a letter,
saying it's your heart I was after
And though you were out of my league, that didn't matter.
Day by day harder I fell.
From my head to the core of my cell,
And deep down I could tell,
That we were meant to be

And love you I did,
Got hooked on you like ****,
Late night texts,
Prolonged goodnights
Good morning texts.

Like a jig saw puzzle,
pieces of my (love) life were finally falling into place.
From dusk till dawn, you filled my dreams,
From dawn till dusk you filled my thoughts.

It was beautiful, till you said you felt differently,
That we were better of as friends,
And I know you had no obligation,
to feel the same way,
But still, I hoped i'd be the apple of your eye.

We never really coupled up,
But it still felt like a breakup.
Though it took me a really long time,
I finally moved on.
Moved on from the fantasy, that we'll ever be,
And accepted the reality, that we'll never be

Don't judge a book by its cover,
But it's so hard not to judge, when all I can see is the cover,
And the cover keeps pulling me over,
And I think not I can recover.

I would love to open the book,
and read the words inside.
But I'm afraid I'd crease the pages,
and I'd never get the book again.

Just a book,
You're like a book,
a book I want to borrow, and never return.
A book I want to hold close, and cherish like a lover.
A book I want to read cover to cover till I am over.
A book I can read and say I love her.
