she sighs

Posted on by under Girls, Love, Sad

romance novels in the afternoon
she’s wasting time and wishes
she tells herself maybe someday soon
she’ll find all she misses

the phone rings for her twice again
another friend is making plan
i start to dial and hang up and then
ask what she’d want with this man

and i know we all fall short of glory
she is closest in my eyes
but even when the sun in shining
she sighs

locked doors in the early night
i’m not going out there
i’d be lying if i said i might
be invited anywhere

i know where all my faults lie
don’t have to show me twice
how can she be flawed as i
when she always seems so nice

and i know we all fall short of glory
but she is closest in my eyes
even when the sun is shining
she sighs

that way

i guess we have to talk
there’s no where left to walk
we have too much to discuss

i’m on the battlefield
and i’ve lowered my shield
will you wait till i trust (to swing your sword)

yeah the rumors are true
i’ve feelings for you
now what will you say?

it’s foreign to me
so i guess i can see
how you don’t think of my that way

now i’m weak in the knees
i’m prepared to say please
if the answer is no i’ll move on somehow

you can laugh if you will
but i’m serious still
all my dreams are awakened now

yeah the rumors are true
i have fallen for you
now what will you say?

i’m new to this and
i will understand
if you don’t think of me that way

will you say, “i love you”
will you ask if i’m through
it comes as shock to me too
but the rumors are true
i’ve feelings for you

one and only

i didn’t know her name
when she made me pray
when she waved at me like she
was in a parade

like an angel touching down
she stood out from the crowd
i wanted to follow her home
a girl like that should never be alone

i knew that girl would be
my one and only
i knew that girl would be
my one and only

so i spent my time on her
my investment yielded no return
i tore her picture from my wall
but i found no flame to burn

then she saw me standing there
guess she noticed my stare
then she spoke the words that made all right
do you think we could go out tonight?

so i treated her like royalty
and she up and left the throne
i, the jester, executed
with, “can’t you just leave me alone?”

my friends say there’s always more
lie about the line outside the door
they speak of fish in a big blue sea
but i know that’s not for me

Oh she will always be
my one and only.

i’m not that kind of guy

i asked her one question
she answered my three
there’s no room left for me

but how do i argue
the logic of my need
and not appear to beg and plead

still she tries to explain
but the reason is too clear
and it is just how i feared

i’m not the kind of guy she falls for
she’s looking for less, she’s looking for more
now i have tarnished what little we had
i am hurt and she feels bad

they say the truth stings
just a little at first
but keeping secrets is much worse

yeah, silence does stagnate
it taints all my thoughts
till i can believe things i should not

but i spit out the words
that i should have swallowed
i abandoned plans i should have followed

i’m not the kind of guy she falls for
she’s looking for less, she’s looking for more
now i have tarnished what little we had
i am hurt and she feels bad

between the lines

the conversation’s over and i claim the world is lost
i’m jumping off the bridge that she’s walking across

nothing makes much sense now tell me i just wanna know
if i want to make her happy why on earth did i tell her no?

just yesterday i was fine
just last night the world was mine
i just try to read between the lines
now i’ve lost my place – my peace of mind

a mumble and she’s gone – too late i bite my tounge
i gasp a breath for pause, but “i’m sorry” fills my lungs

i cannot chase her down as she’s walking away
i cannot call her name, but i whisper, “no, please stay!”

just yesterday i was fine
just last night the world was mine
i just tried to read between the lines
now i’ve lost my place, my piece of mind

nothing makes much sense now
tell me i just wanna know
if i dream to just be near her
how could i let her go?

there’s my chance

i was early
i was there
the sun was setting
in the evening air

then there was was
all i could see
i played it cool till
she walked up to me

i was ready
she said hi
opened my mouth
but my mouth was dry

there’s my chance
plain as day
there’s my chance
walking away

i was leaving
head hung low
no more words
they’re gone with the flow

she just smiled
she doesn’t know
i fell in battle
to a friendly foe

now i’m alone
she found a friend
ah, the moment passes
but will it ever come again?
