Breaking my owns rules

You got me breaking my own rules,

Like how I was supposed to stay single while finishing school;

Remember I was telling you,

To work on you and then once your done to come through;

I told you we couldn't kiss,

But when we did it bliss;

I even told you I was scared,

And for me to feel was something rare;

My heart was closed,

Locked up somewhere dark and cold,

Motionless it stood frozen by the snow,

Everything was dead around, nothing could possibly grow;

And then the snow started feeling funny,

It was melting as it hit my heart,

And me being smart,

Realized something was cooking,

That's when I opened my eyes and started looking;

And realized I was feeling you,

I wanted you, that was true;

And I started breaking my rules;

Took out my tools,

and started reconstructing,

readjusting;

I fixed it, there's a beat,

suddenly I can feel my feet,

So I started moving forward,

with you I started a new tomorrow;

Can't you see, said my heart to me,

It seems it's meant to be;

So I made you mine and locked you away,

In a place that was far far away;

Now your heart is in my oasis,

never to be tampered with, never to be tainted.
