-I wish it was a love song
for the lovers, broken hearted,
the rejected, and who don't believe in it

-but this is just for YOU
the girl that I met
about 2 years ago

-you were the girl
that sat next to me
passing notes
passing smiles
asking this
asking that

-YOU sent me to bliss
with a small little kiss

-and with it
a small consequence worse than a life time sentence
it went so deep inside
that I couldn't believe
I had fallen in love
but that kiss sure prove I was right

-I tried and I tried
I lied and I lied about these feelings
closing my eyes
drifting inside
haven't YOU got a clue
I can not get over YOU

DISENCHANTED

--I'm not the man I used to be
I'm all zonked and beckoning for you

-crumble in a mist full of deceptions
pummeling me with no way to quell
nor retrace in my own muffling way

-you granted me 3 birthday wishes
which I haven't used yet
but if my yen required the 3 of them
to realize my silly desire
I would crave one simple day with you callousness

--just you and me
from the first sign of dawn
to the last sign of dusk
forgetting my jinx
with the talisman
that you searched for me
and that I kiss every time
I'm alone at night
with scary thoughts

-but now that's over
I'm frail and cussing
your monotonous mind puzzle
with feelings you said you had
feelings I never saw
maybe and mainly because they were
behind all those loving words about your b-f

-once you asked me, "am I in your eyes"?
"am I not in your eyes"? what do you see in me"? "what do you like about me"?
"why did you broke up with your last g-f and how long was your longest
relationship"?
I once answered all your questions, and if you ever ask me again
I'll answer that I'm disenchanted with the girl that I fell in love with

ONLY IN DREAMS

-Once in a while
you come to my dreams
asking for help
or asking for me?

-every dream
has a new story
though not self explanatory
feeling your love
feeling your touch
feeling in heaven

-if I wake up
I go back to sleep
and as if we had paused
we continue playing inside of my head
you'll be the queen and I'll be the king

-it's strange how it works
but like it or not
we are bonded some how
no matter how far
no matter how close
your heart speaks to mine
and lingers in limbo

-you know I want to feel you
I know you want to feel me
so why can't you see
that what you wanted me to do
goes against my principles

-I believed all that you told
then you left me hanging out so cold!
only in dreams you won't think that you know the way I feel
only in dreams you won't think that you feel the way I do
only in dreams
