mine all myself

sometimes I want to see what you dream
because you think of me
and when you say things
all I can do is dream

to myself in my mirror
I wish always to know
what you know
and what you think of me

when you walk around
and I see your foot prints in the sand
a trail to follow
if only I could stand
on my own in the sand

a dream to chase the dark away
you are mine
and I hope you will stay

never alone

when little memories attack
and travel through time and back
linking arms with those of us
who never used to ride a bus

when travel leaves us all secluded
shrouded in ghosts of faces clouded
where shadows leap throughout the air
bringing hope and not despair

the light that follows will only guide us
will only bring us together more
and never leave when we look away
or close our eyes and dream
of another day

from me to you

designs to flitter all of a flutter
but be not bothered by the butter
dreams will come and fade away
but true love will forever stay
hand in hand
night to day
you and me

never before will clocks cuckoo
or whisper a song from me to you
never known or thought before
I will miss you at the door

when time comes round
and you're not to be found
my smile will fade
and go away
it will show you the truth
when it comes from me to you

I can't do it anymore

I need help
I cannot keep living like this

I live in dreams, in fantasies
of what I thought I could be
but I'm not,
nor will I ever be

I must stay in reality
to keep my dreams at bay

there is no chance for me
to live like what I think
would have been my life

So I must walk away
and live my own life
the one that was meant for me
even if  I don't get it yet

But that isn't true

gone again and on and on

when I close my eyes to sleep at night
my mind starts racing out of sight
to what end I do not know
but I shall forever go
to follow it

and when the storms start to come
they all start leaving one by one
and mysteries that do not sleep
will one day find its all a dream
and awaken

but little petals of a rose
tell the secrets no one knows
and when the sun shines down on you
you know its shining on me too
it goes on and on

life goes on and on without me
it goes on and on for you
remember my dreams when you are sleeping
and know its my heart you're always keeping
close to yours

right now

I may not be able
to walk well in stilettos
but I know what it is to dream

and every brand new moment
that we share on the pavement
chasing each other around
the same old thing

I feel
so nice
its beautiful
your soul
because I see
in front of me
things that I cannot let go

there's no one around here
they've all left, since last year
and can't I help but think it's me

better for me

I know the little things
and I can show you
what it means
just to be loved by you

I feel
so nice
its beautiful
your soul
 I see
bright as day
in front of me

this I will not let go

what I left behind

I find peace within my soul
after hearing from you,
hearing your voice in my heart

You knew that I needed you
that I wasn't at my best
You saw the sadness I kept hidden away

And I am glad
to have you in my heart
always watching over me

my own guardian angel
because thats who you are to me
always there for me

and I am grateful for your love
when I feel I have none left
of my own

I want to share it all
all the happiness in the world
so I give mine away to make it so

but at the end of the day,
when I take the tears I traded
I always question if it was worth it

sometimes I wonder the
could have beens or what ifs
and I know I shouldn't do that

but I do it anyway
then I hide alone
to cry on my own

and hope that
the happiness I left behind
was worth it every time
