12

Your gaze captured me from the start,
The whole world lost here in my heart.
But you’ve got someone else to love,
And here I am, searching for my place above.
I made plans, endless journeys in my mind,
Walking on beaches of a summer I designed.
But I know I could never reach you,
If I could, I’d bring you here too.
If I could choose, it would be you,
To live all the things I always wanted to do.
But when I wake, the dream fades away,
Sorry, but if I’m condemned, it won’t be my way.
Your eyes draw me in, I don’t know what to say,
Maybe if I weren’t selfish, I’d find a way.
You play your games, leaving me confused,
You know we can’t be together, yet you choose to amuse.
Maybe you want it too,
But don’t know how to break through.
If you don’t love him, please don’t play me like this,
Don’t try to fool me,
Don’t be like the ones out there in the mist.
I feel guilty for things beyond my control,
I asked the heavens for someone like you,
Now that I found you, I don’t know how to hold.
If I could choose, it would be you,
To live all the things I always wanted to do.
But when I wake, the dream fades away,
Sorry, but if I’m condemned, it won’t be my way.
Your eyes draw me in, I don’t know what to say,
Maybe if I weren’t selfish, I’d find a way.
Walking on beaches of a summer I designed,
But I know I could never reach you, it’s hard to unwind.
I see signs, or maybe I just dreamed,
Perhaps they’re illusions that I’ve weaved.
I wish I could bring you to my world, make you stay,
But in the silence, I can only imagine the way.
If I could choose, it would be you,
To live all the things I always wanted to do.
But when I wake, the dream fades away,
Sorry, but if I’m condemned, it won’t be my way.
Your eyes draw me in, I don’t know what to say,
Maybe if I weren’t selfish, I’d find a way.
