Lyrical Musings an emotional journey via train of thought

I’m going to curl up and dream of you

and all the things we’ve yet to do

in my dreams I’ll touch your face

and melt into your safe place

I’ll let myself come flooding out

so you can see what I’m about

And when you hold me near

I’ll forget about my fear

I sleep so I can finally go

to a place that doesn’t exist I know

but where my love can finally show

It’s a simple thing in my heart

we’re better together than we are apart

we laugh and we love and we kiss and we smile

and fall deeper in love all the while

In dreams there’s nothing in the way

to drag us apart, day after day

and everything is easy to understand

nothing undermines my sweetest plan

I sleep so I can have your kiss

in a land where I don’t have to miss

your voice, your laugh your gentleness

I’m going to wake up alone in my bed

with thoughts of you running through my head

our love story quickly fades away

and I am forced to go through my day

without knowing your body next to mine

or your laughter to pass the time

and when the day’s end has come and gone

I return to my dreams — always alone

I sleep so I can forget the pain

and to silence the yelling in my brain

So I sleep and sleep and sleep again

You’re my three thirty in the morning

Comes on without warning

There’s no pill that I can take

To fix my broken heart ache

I’m the girl you’re able to forget

The one who never should have let

Herself lose control of her heart

Who fell for you and fell apart

We’re the promise impossible to keep

Only existing when I sleep

The potential that we’ll never meet

Makes those dreams painfully sweet

It’s the story never told

Without the chance to get old

Won’t go down in history

Or have the chance to see

Our love was far-too-brief story

You spin me ’round, pull me down
make me feel like my feet don’t touch the ground

you give me love, lift me up
like the answer to my prayer’s in your touch

I pretend it’s fine, one day at a time
but I want to make you all mine

Should move to the door, stuck on  the floor
can’t you tell that I want more, more, more?

and I don’t know, does it show
that I fall apart every time you go?

You don’t see how, you’ve got me now
If I could only say the words out loud

Easy to see, how we could be
the best part of you and the best of me

Want to show you, how it’s true
every little thing that I’d do for you

You know my heart, from the start
Nothing could ever tear us apart

We can go home, all our own
a place where we’ll never be alone

I don’t know why, I can’t lie
We both know it doesn’t pay to say “good bye”

Guess I’ll keep on, writing this song
Pretending that it will never go wrong

and you don’t know

(you don’t know, you don’t know)

how could i expect you to?

it doesn’t show

(doesn’t show, doesn’t show)

this love i have for you

I know I should get out

(i should get out, can i get out?)

i can’t see a single way

that this works out

(this works out, this works out)

but i fight the urge to stay

do you feel the things i feel?

(things i feel, things i feel)

am i just making it up as i go along?

tell me are these feelings real?

(feelings real, feelings real)

maybe everything’s so wrong

still i can’t help but write it down

(write it down, write it down)

to see these lyrics free

even if it burns me down

(burns me down, burns me down)

and you’re the end of me

can i keep going on?

(keep going on, keep going on)

Is there something for me in the end?

Or is this just a silly song

(a silly song, a silly song)

That you’ll never hear my friend

and don’t you know

(oh you know, oh you know)

all the things I say I feel

(things I feel, things I feel)

there’s too many things to show,

but I can feel that they are real

you’re like a wind storm blowing me down

you’re going to bowl me over

and whenever you come around

I can’t seem to be sober

caught up in your way

thinking about it every day

hanging on every word you say

I can never get away

i look on ahead and i know

this thing we have will never last

but right now I cannot let go

I’m just living in our future’s past

caught up in your way

thinking about it every day

hanging on every word you say

I can never get away

you could never give me forever

even though I’d like to let you try

we’ll never end up together

you’ll have to be the one to say goodbye

caught up in your way

thinking about it every day

hanging on every word you say

I can never get away

and it haunts me each and every day

it doesn’t matter the words you say

eventually you”ll just go away

we both know that’s your way

Others have turned away when you needed them most
They left you alone and weak in the dirt
No crying shoulder around, no one to play host
How’s a man supposed to deal with his hurt?
Don’t see in me someone else’s ghost
We can’t be a place where your doubts lurk

Because I will always be
Right here waiting for you
Heart full of love and arms opened wide
That’s what you’ll get from me

I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t been there before
I know what it’s like wanting to flee
I’ve fought every urge to run through that door
Just like others have done to me
What can you do when they refuse you support?
But don’t you think for a second it’ll set you free

Because I will always be
Right here waiting for you
Heart full of grace and arms opened wide
That’s what you’ll get from me

I can’t pretend to take it all away
All the pain that they’ve given to you
We both know there’s nothing that I can say
To make you forget what you’ve had to do
My only hope is to have enough sway
For you to see in me a heart that is true

Because I will always be
Right here waiting for you
Heart full of hope and arms opened wide
That’s what you’ll get from me

My time, my affection
Loyalty and every confession
My dreams and my touch
Every single thought of love
That’s what you’ll get from me

Every single piece that is me
That’s what you’ll get from me

You won’t find me in a smokey lounge singing the blues
and the bright lights won’t spell out my name
I really doubt I’ll ever change the world
but I’m going to love you just the same

Some people won’t let anything get in their way
they have have the biggest dreams
and they won’t stop for anything
but I just want you at the end of the day

I’m going to try hard as I can
it won’t be easy or perfect
there’ll be stormy days ahead
but I’m not afraid of making that stand

Some may call it a little bit too easy
I won’t try to make them understand
Or tell them exactly what’s on my mind
as long as you agree with me

Maybe I’m getting back to a simpler way of life
but I want what I want what I want
and what I want’s what I want’s what I want
I don’t have anything to decide

As long as that hand you’re holding is mine
I know we’ll be just fine
and if you keep coming to me to confide
I’ll stay right by your side

They call me crazy for giving you a chance
and I don’t know that they’re wrong
but I’m going to give it my all anyway
so I can know the ending to this song

No, you won’t find me in Hollywood
I couldn’t care less if I ever make it big
Cause I’m living life on my own terms
If I have you, I’ll call it good

Together, we can make the life that I know I need
falling asleep in your arms to wake up by your side
it’s too soon to say forever, so I’ll say this instead
All that I need is us as long as I breathe

remember that time
when i was almost yours
and you were almost mine
and everything fell almost perfectly in line

think about that day
when you held me in your arms
and made the world go away
and kept me safe from harm

don’t forget about the night
when we fell asleep together
and nothing’s ever felt so right
or so close to forever

promise you’ll never let go
of the smiles we shared
and the secrets i let you know
and the way we cared

just think about it
when you’ve got a minute
our perfect fit
that will always be infinite

another tear rolls slowly down
marking its way at it goes
and i am sure to drown

i know it’s such a cliche
but i can’t help but think
everything looks bleak and grey

but the clouds are rolling in
and the world’s a little less bright
my vision becomes so dim

and i don’t understand why
when i’ve been through this all before
there are any tears left to cry

you don’t seem to know
how my heart is breaking
and you won’t let show
the toll this is all taking

the same old song and dance
you pull, i push, we break
just wanting a second chance
to erase our old mistakes

it happens time and again
the same old broken heart
i just don’t understand

I will mark and I will claim you
Maul and maim you
Take and tame you
I will have and I will hold you
Understand and know you
Love and control you
I will collar and I will lead you
Bite and bleed you
Cherish and need you
You will push and you will pull me
Arouse and fill me
Fulfill and complete me
And I will keep you
And you will keep me
we will feel and we will be
Entangled, star crossed, invincible
You and me
