Last night in my dreams I saw your face
So powerful it's something that I can't erase
From my mind after all of these years
And now look at my face with tears
And I tried to be gorgeous for you
I tried to be lovely and good
But in a world where definitions rule
I don't know what I should be,
What I should
And there's nothing more beautiful than love
But I fell like what I do isn't enough
And I try to get closer to you
But I know that what I'm doing isn't getting through

Captive

I've got to go
I've got to run
I've got to get myself out of here
I've got to move
Got nothing to lose
'Cept your tireless abuse
My heart's your little captive
(Chained to your numbness, /
Chained to broken promise, /
Chained from my crazy mind, /
Chained to our losses,)
Yet if
You extend out to me
I'll give up gratefully
My body aches
This is what it hates
Only my world shakes
Your empty words
Your stares that curse
Pained lips stay pursed
Thought these were true
The thoughts of residue
And now I'm stuck with both of you
Can I cut it out
Maybe slow it down
Anything before I drown
I hoped for more
To settle some score
Go back to what we were before
What I had expected as I'm no longer rejected
Now our relationship's defective

The twinkle of you eye is in the clouds
With the raindrops trickling down
You remind me to wait
For the sunny smile
Just let me say
You gave me
Everything
I need
To brave this weather
When I go out
In my sailboat
On the waters
Of the mirror
Just let me say thank you
I'll lend you an ear if you lend me your words
I promise I listened before and I heard
You behaved like the calm before the storm
Your words prevent my harm
You said it's only so bad if
You think it's the worst
You've changed my life so well
And I just can't lose this
Path I'm on right now
The softest touch you gave is in the breeze
Telling me to believe
I'll worry 'bout you 'cuz
You deserve to be happy

I'm being selfish when I say I'm sorry,
I'm sorry
'Cuz I know we quit for you
I'm being stupid
When I regret it, when I regret it
But why did I, why did I have to choose?
I choose
I choose
I choose
I'm being cold hearted as I run from you,
from you
You promised you'd never do the same
I'm being clueless looking away from you, from you
Then I know, I know I've really lost my way
I lose
I lose
I lose you

Love Of Mine

No, not today
Not those three words
Though I want you to stay
I can't hear this from you
Please ask again
In a week, a month, or two
Right now I just can't say
I'm head over heels with you
And oh! I hear the sigh
You think I've passed you by
And oh! Don't you cry
If I couldn't be there by your side
And oh! We'll try another time
Some day you'll be the only love of mine
Valentine's Day
I wrote you a card
Though you wrote one for me too
Mine was from the heart
"Roses are red
Violets are blue
We could be more than friends
Since I'm in love with you"
And oh! I hear the sigh
I think you've passed me by
And oh! I could cry
If I couldn't be there by your side
And oh! I ask just one more time
My dear, you are the only love of mine
