and these words were spoken i swear, i hear the old man laughing
does he see me
does it matter anymore
you've questioned the melody floating overhead
right this moment
the minors are gone
it's about as sparkling as your tinted eyes
i'll write you a new requiem so fast
it'll make you're head spin in ecstasy
because that's how it feels to be in time with you
do you know how it feels to submerge in open waters
so far over your head
you're drowning
but not for me
you're in love!
so tell me
can you not picture us in a white picket fence fantasy
no
you're too caught up in spotlights and billboards to notice
so keep your black sweatshirt on my love
they'll be a new admirer on your door step tomorrow
i've accepted my fate
so what do you do when the people you loved
never really loved you
do you wish, remain optimistic?
do you cry, be a realist and realize
you're older than you ever knew
life's not fair, i know
put me on your reality show
i'll be your star just give me some time
i'll shine, then we'll talk, make a bargain over dinner and a movie
sign it with a kiss and call it a night
i'll lay by the phone
it'll never ring
did i fall in love with a shooting star again?
does it matter anymore
you've questioned the melody floating overhead
