mr. boy with the perfect smile
you controlled my dreams and all my thoughts
but you took my heart on a one way trip
and i just dont appreciate that
dont take what you dont intend to pay for
look at what you lost and could have had
it's a shame you'll never know what its like to kiss these lips
and you'll never know what its like inside of me
now take a second to think boy
mr. charming stranger
was it really necessary to point that out
make me want something that was just a fantasy
that i could never have you
you're so untouchable aren't you?
i guess i should have known
i'm still trying to figure out why you did that
i thought it was me, i thought it was me
its a shame you'll never know what its like to kiss these lips
and you'll never know what its like inside of me
but its too bad for both of us
we could have had something good
but i guess you'll never know what its like to be with me
and i'll only know what it's like wanting you.
and i blame it all on you
the warmth of your smile, now a cold frost
all we once had has fallen apart
my smile fades as you turn away, the mind i once knew has gone
goodbye all I've ever stood for
to think, i'm a fool again, my life's a one act play
leaving my feelings to toss in the wind again and again
you and the others have never cared, and i have never learned not to
the soft ways of your touch, the once familiar feel
is now a memory that will never again be real
your love is nothing more than a game
the harder i fall, the faster you leave
you thought id never show a backbone
never learn to build defense
don't do me any favors, it's not like i need you
but know that i won't let another leave
i've been hurt too much before.
he says he has to leave, has some business to pay
i wonder if i hold him down
and beg him to stay
if he will?
his last bag is packed
he starts the car
the snow's really falling hard outside
the sky's blue color has faded to gray
lonely now, cause he wouldn't stay
only in the winter
it's freezing outside
but im freezing within
it's cold out when you're lover's gone
sit at the window, watch the days go by
the moon's coming out earlier now
but nights aren't the same
when you're not here
only in the winter
the shortest days and longest nights
all seem a little longer now
and the weather seems all
a little too cold now
when you've got no arms around you
i say to my baby
i wish you could stay
but hes got some business
he has to pay
he'll be back soon, but it feels so long
only in the winter.
lighting up heaven's sky
i'll be there
you wait and see
breath running short
a wild head
the end is soon
but we're not dead
crossing endless bounds
to be there for each other
but all the while
the fireflies
theyre watching us
lighting heaven's sky
gold against blue
fire in the sky
world as we know it
may soon be ending
but we will never die
rise and fall
the waves of blue
the sun so bright
all things change
but one thing is constant
in this hellish place
our love will never change
the fireflies
are watching us
they're lighting heaven's sky
we'll soon be there
gold against blue
our eyes in the dark
fire in this endless sky
holes are torn in the artists canvas
imperishable goods are gone
the musicians play their final note
and the final tide is coming
the mockingbirds aren't singing
and steady grounds have crumbled
but the fireflies are all aglow
lighting heaven's sky.
