Just One Day

Glow from the stereo, music plays softly She forces a smile as she sips her coffee We'd spent all day trying to pause time Laid in bed with our legs intertwined Finally relaxed, I drifted off in peace She lay awake and watched me sleep I wake up in dread as night fall's near She rubs my head and whispers in my ear Cherish it, my dear, these times are rare Hold my hand, touch my skin, get lost in my stare Inside these brick walls, it's just you and me We can be who we want where the world won't see No secret side glances, trying not to get caught No awkward hellos, portraying someone we're not Here, beside you, is where I belong I won't change my mind, there's no way this is wrong Fast forward, press play, we wait for the train Shadows cast on her face from the moonlit rain A closer look, I see, a tear fall from her eye Don't cry, I plea, this isn't goodbye I love you now and I did from the start Brown eyed girl, you've captured my heart I'll always be here as a lover or friend You're a part of me now till the beautiful end
