Late nights are when my thoughts linger
I think too deep and begin to ponder
Why life has no purpose but to bring joy or pain
We have so much to lose but much more to gain
Many people give up too fast
Instead of living in the present, they focused on the past
These thoughts strike in the middle of the night
And they make me wonder with all of my might
I haven't lost that much
The only thing I fear is to lose all trust
Half of that is already gone
It got swept away with old love songs
My thoughts are getting foggy an hard to see
The midnight hour is the key

Summer fades
And crushes don't last
I wanted you to love me
Is that so much to ask?
I miss you
Your voice, your touch
You haven't said "I love you"
Or talked to me much
I'm wondering what to do
I'll do anything to stay with you
But here I am
Open for your care
I hope you save me
Before it becomes too much to bear

I wasted my time
I wasted my heart
I wasted my tears
On love that never had a start

I've found someone new
That treats me like how I should
He loves me so dearly
More than you ever could

That night we shared on the stairs
When I was crying my eyes out
You gave me a tissue and pulled back my hair
And understood me without a doubt
And we talked.

Today I talked with someone new
And it reminded me of that night
Every second I thought of you
And regretted our fight
And you're gone.

Sometimes you and I would be on the phone
Never is it the same
I really wish you'd come home
I think it was my family to blame
And I'm sorry.

I can tell
I can almost taste
How much my self conscious wants you
If my heart fell?
Guess we'll have to wait
To see if my heart wants you too

In my dreams, you arrived
And trust me, I have tried
To shake that feeling off
I had my chance
In the past
When both our hearts were soft

Now I'll wait
If there's a sign
That I should hold on
But I know
That we'll be right for each other
All along

Stars tell stories to travelers
They guide them through the night
Show them how to live for adventure
Show them the value in life

And as they speak
Their words of wisdom
They speak
Of what they've learned and seen

So listen to them closely
For they have a lot to say
But also remember
Story time ends at day

— The End —
