An old feeling resurfacing after years of repression.
I've danced this awful dance before.
Unable to resist the magnetic chemistry sparking between us
A familiar weight of longing settling on my chest...
logic says no
foolish heart beats
what if? what if? what if....?
Is this cycle born of loneliness? of habit?
Or are you just that embedded into my heart and soul that I cannot shake you from my core?
Is this real? A fantasy?
How do I know which you are?
Trapped in a Harlequin romance
empty words and fading dreams my only consolation
while I waltz through the heartache and confusion
All the while wondering maybe, just maybe,
this time will be different...

An old feeling resurfacing after years of repression.
I've danced this awful dance before.
Unable to resist the magnetic chemistry sparking between us
A familiar weight of longing settling on my chest...
logic says no
foolish heart beats
what if? what if? what if....?
Is this cycle born of loneliness? of habit?
Or are you just that embedded into my heart and soul that I cannot shake you from my core?
Is this real? A fantasy?
How do I know which you are?
Trapped in a Harlequin romance
empty words and fading dreams my only consolation
while I waltz through the heartache and confusion
All the while wondering maybe, just maybe,
this time will be different...
