he asked me to dance.

he told me i looked beautiful.

he told me he cared about me.

he looked me in the eye..

he hugged me for a long time and told me not to cry.

and i told him i loved him for the last time.

Let’s fall in love overnight.

Tell me everything that crosses your mind at 2 AM,
I’ll listen.
Sing to me the songs that make you want to cry,
I’ll sing along with you.
Tell me all your dreams,
and I’ll make them happen overnight.

Let me in,
let me feel your warmth
and let me hold you;
the way you hold a flightless bird
with an injured wing,
so gentle and fragile.

That’s what this is.
This feeling is fragile.

This overnight love can break so easily,
but for now let’s just secure it
in the palm of our hands
to the empty spaces in our hearts.

Let’s fill it with this overnight love.

I wasn't made to bend or fold
always knew what in my hands I hold.

There is always a choice
and never will I be afraid to use my voice.

Nothing can stop me
but why is it that I am not free?

What is it that I lack
that always holds me back?

All I ever wanted
was to paint my life red

Live loud
despite the silent crowd

Love freely
even if others thought it was silly

I wish I was brave enough to hold on to happiness
but this is the truth that nobody says:

You are only as happy as you choose to be
and making that decision is what sets you free.

I wish we didn’t fool around,
knowing we could have been the real thing,
if only we took the risk right from the start.

Maybe then we wouldn’t be playing this silly game
not knowing if our feelings should be taken seriously or not.

Oh the games we play.
