I count down the seconds till I lay my head down to sleep
To have a dream I wish I could forever keep
So I can dream of what I wish were true
Instead of waking up to another day without you
Why is love so unkind
When its only happiness I’m trying to find
I jumped into what reminded me of you
But came to find they didn’t want me anymore too
Drowning in my tears
Still trying to heal
What has been wounded, now numb
No longer wanting to feel
Now in the midst of never again wanting to care
I find someone who wants to be there
Wants to be mine and me be his
What could I ask for to be better than this
But because of my past
I don’t know what can ever last
Never knowing who I can trust
Only feeling the love I once did through lust
I don’t want to get hurt and neither does he
But I will say yes if it’s meant to be
