New Beginnings

Current mood: calm
Category: Writing and Poetry


Verse 1:
He wants it to be perfect.
He wants everything in place.
His heart is overflowing and
it's showing on his face.
He wants it to be more than this.
He has so much to share.
I looked deep into his eyes,
but all I saw was despair
as he searched inside so hard
to find the right words to explain.

Bridge:
Your image is a cancer that is living in my brain,
and I cannot erase. It's slowly driving me insane.
I wanted you to know that I can't get you out my head,
and the more I think about it I realize that I would
never be caught dead without you. Can't breathe without you.
Close my eyes and dream about you. Scream your name.
It's not the same, and I'm letting go.

Chorus:
I can't forget the past. Won't regret the last time.
It's the last time that I'll see your face.
I won't remember when. Can't remember then.
Don't you tell me it's not the end.
Is it really your decision? If I wanted you to know
I'd never have let you go.
But I want it, and it's not the same.

Verse 2:
She knows I want to show her
everything I feel inside.
She's not sure if she's ready,
and she's got something to hide.
She never told me how she felt
about this situation, but she
doesn't want to ruin this moment
or my anticipation.
I think she's got it all quite wrong
and I just don't know how I can explain.

Bridge:
I want to show you how, but I don't know right now.
It's burning at my fingertips. Just one more taste of your sweet lips,
and... but I can't get this out. No I can't figure out...
just what am I to say to you? I thought I thought this whole thing through...
Now everthing escapes me... They've raped me with their eyes...
They never look inside... I want to see inside...
I want to make you understand. I love you now, I loved you then.
I'll always love my summerset horizon...

Chorus:
I can't forget the past. Won't regret the last time.
It's the last time that I'll see your face.
I won't remember when. Can't remember then.
Don't you tell me it's not the end.
Is it really your decision? If I wanted you to know
I'd never have let you go.
But I want it, and it's not the same.

Bridge:
There's only one thing left to say you.
(I just can't find the words.)
There's one more thing now that I have to do.
(Right now I need you here.)
There's got to be a way, a sign, a clue.
(But I can't seem to find it.)
There's one thing blocking this amazing view before me.
(I just cannot see past the fear.)
I know there's one more road to travel,
and I can't do this on my own.

Chorus:
I can't forget the past. Won't regret the last time.
It's the last time that I'll see your face.
I won't remember when. Can't remember then.
Don't you tell me it's not the end.
Is it really your decision? If I wanted you to know
I'd never have let you go.
But I want it, and it's not the same.

Verse 3:
I turned around,
(She turned around.)
and saw his face.
(She looked my way.)
I tried to smile.
(She came to me,)
I felt the same,
(and her eyes rained.)
and I left. Never looking back now
at what I was leaving.
Took a breathe. Slowly in and out
as hell was over freezing.
The old and new was all in you.
I saw the view. You saw it too.
Begin a new. Begin a new.
Begin a new. Begin a new...
