Deep Into the Night

Deep into the night my mind is at ease Yet my heart stays restless. I lay and I look up at the ceiling And I ponder what my heart may desire. With every beat and blood flow thru, It releases a heartbreak or maybe even two. These memories I replay over and over, Time after time, It’s always something That makes me smile. I loved them and lost them. NO! They lost me. I have no regrets because They helped me find me. Deep into the night my mind is at ease Yet my heart stays restless. I lay and I look up at the ceiling And I ponder what my heart may desire. With every beat and blood flow thru, It releases a heartbreak or maybe even two. I walk to my window And I stare out to the moon I daydream and my dreams Soon become a reality If only for just a moment. Time slows As I fantasize. I’m too old for the fairytales But yet I still believe. My heart believes dreams do come true. Deep into the night my mind is at ease Yet my heart stays restless. I lay and I look up at the ceiling And I ponder what my heart may desire. With every beat and blood flow thru, It releases a heartbreak or maybe even two My yesterdays formed my todays And my todays Will shape my tomorrows. No regrets and no looking back. I pulled thru And am stronger than before. More respect And self-love, More picking myself up And more positivity, More laughter And more joy, No more sorrow And lots more happiness. My goals are aimed And I’m my only target. Deep into the night my mind is at ease Yet my heart stays restless. I lay and I look up at the ceiling And I ponder what my heart may desire. With every beat and blood flow thru, It releases a heartbreak or maybe even two Geared And ready For whatever may come. Heavily guarded, Steel walls all up. As I lay And look up at the ceiling And I ponder what my heart may desire. With every beat and blood flow thru, It releases a heartbreak or maybe even two. Deep into the night my mind is at ease Yet my heart stays restless. Deep into the night my mind is at ease Yet my heart stays restless. I lay and I look up at the ceiling And I ponder what my heart may desire. With every beat and blood flow thru, It releases a heartbreak or maybe even two
