Swept in like a breeze
and drifted right out the window
the seasons are changing
but all i still see is snow
the temperature is raising
but the sun still wont shine
i guess thats what new york will do
until i cross state lines
I remember the way you smiled
when you looked me in the eyes
starting pointless conversation
just to get into my mind
In a room full of people
I was standing all alone
but when you crept into my heart
I could not remember my way home
and I wish that I had stayed
and never had to leave again
because I’ve never felt so wanted
just from one day’s end
And it may be three hundred miles
or six hours driving north
but you should come to find me
so I can show you what were worth
I remember sitting, thinking
Were you somehow sent to find me
And I was meant to be in that room
when you were standing right beside me
I remember the way you smelled
and how my head fit on your chest
and that goddamn contagious smile
that just wouldn’t let me rest
and I could feel your heart beat racing
it was so in sync with mine
and the beating never slowed
as we awoke with the sun shine
If I could stay for hours
and tell you everything I know
and give you everything I have
right down to how fast my blood flows
when I think of you I quiver
Cause your lips are all I taste
and i can think of nothing else
but all the days that I must face
with you in my head and in my heart
but our hands not intertwined
while these roads keep us apart
I keep that night on replay, rewind
I wish I could fast forward
so I could lay in your arms once more
I know what I’m working toward
and I’ve never been so sure
when you tell me that I’m pretty
all that I can do is laugh
Cause what you see in me, is what I see in you
and my heart no longer remains in halves
when you touch me I get flustered
and my words wont come out straight
and my eyes cant look right into yours
but I would lay all night awake
Just to listen to you breathing
and hold you close, breath in your scent
just to know that I’m not dreaming
altough we’ve only just met
There’s just something about you
that makes all my worries fade
and I think about my life
and how I always want you to stay
I can’t explain this feeling
because it’s something new to me
I’ve never clicked with someone
who I’ve barely yet to speak
And I can spill my heart out
but it will never be enough
because words can’t create actions
they are the easiest bluff
but believe me when I say this
that there’s nothing more I’d want
then to wake up to you every morning
with you in my every thought
