Things just instantly got simpler.
Is that really all it took?
A talk, a glance, and a fear to lose...
I know I said it wouldn’t change anything,
but I lied
Don’t get me wrong, I won’t act like it did
But you know better
And for some reason
I don’t feel so alone anymore
Please don’t walk down a road
that I can’t go
Because honestly
waiting has been my specialty
That head tilt, those nights, these talks
I don’t know how else to explain it,
other than I somehow feel like
even though I don’t know the details,
my life was just reassembled
For the first time in a while
my smile means that I’m happy
and I know that no matter what
I’m changed for the better because of you
