Maybe it's lost in translation 
one big misconception 
what does it all mean 
I'm sleep walking it seems 
the words "I Love You" did I hear 
passing from your lips to my ears 
lulled into this dream state 
of which I can't escape 
here words can be deceptive 
yet still hold you captive 
here the heart is blind 
when love goes undefined 
when forever means for now 
good intentions change somehow 
the invitation to your life 
once sincere turned contrite 
who should we say is to blame 
that are feelings aren't the same 
my heart still tries to intercept 
while yours continues to reject 
the words continue rewinding 
only in the mind are they binding 
what does it all mean 
I'm sleep walking it seems 
the words I love you did I hear 
passing from your lips to my ears 
It's all lost in translation 
one big misconception
