it’s just another morning,
where I hesitate to look you in the eye
because I know that you’ll make me remember things
in another episode of yearning.
I find myself in the silliest of things
that reminds me of what we used to be
on that ship, we used to sail on
not knowing where we’ll end up by the end of
tomorrow.
and isn\'t it ridiculous how I tend to reconsider
taking you back when all you
ever used to want was the feeling
that she used to give you.
All I wanted was for us to be the
perfect couple people used to think we were
but the color you dyed your hair proved
how little I knew you
and the tattoos I permanently inked
on my skin proved
how little you knew me
and the fact that we both fell for different
people
by the end of the day
proved how little we didn\'t know ourselves
because we were so sure we were gonna end up together
but all that we ended up with by the end
of our episode
was the lullaby I famously sang
in front of a crowd
and the kisses you gave another girl
that you always refused
to give to me.
I loved you
but you weren’t capable of loving someone
stronger than you
and truth is,
we were two people from two different worlds
two different countries and races
that we thought made us perfect for each other once.
you loved me,
but I wasn’t able to forget my past
without accepting that some things have to end
to start my new start with you.
But now your birthday’s gone,
and Christmas passed
and I’m sure by now it’s over
until the flowers you bought for me on our first date
and memories of the day we met on that ship
rushed back
and we collided once more -
I knew that you were back for real
and this time
you were back for me,
and not just to forget some blonde
or try to remember the feeling she used to give you.
this time you’re ready to accept what I have to give you
instead of wanting what you used to have in the past.
