Guarded heart


My head is a galaxy of stars that are shaped like hearts,
But they cannot be seen in the dark because of their blinding lights.
There is a sky in my mind, a place I like to find, when I choose to fly,
And today is a day for wings, to sing and for me to say,
I love you.


With the records on and the music playing,
I am thinking of regrets and the words I should be saying.
It may be too late to change the course of history,
But if I ever did get the chance again for you to see,
I would show you that the love I keep deep inside of me is sweet,
And I would say I missed you and my chance of love…
Did you miss me?


For a long time now I have been thinking about you,
But I could never speak those words that only I knew.
I knew I had fallen for you when my parachute opened,
And it pulled me away from the one who would be my chosen.
Yes I would pick you up from the earth if I could,
And I would place you next to me for eternity.


I have been thinking about rings for a very long time,
So when I had the chance to give you my heart,
I was too coco-nuts! (Shy),
To ever say I would like to be with you today,
And all the words were lost upon the zeitgeist
And now that is just another day, when I could not say,
I need you to stay,
Because you make Tuesday the best day.
