Small Talk

I will prove it to you that I’m stronger than you realize You are my one and only that I prize in my elegant eyes Feeling like I’ve been living under a rock Sorry, hon, but I’m sick of the small talk What about you keep me warm under your blankets? Shelter me from the storm – the storm of regrets Love me till the break of dawn Love me until I’m fully gone Keep me on your mind, baby I’ve been thinking of you lately You’re out of touch still…I wish I wasn’t such a quitter You know the drill – I’ve been neglecting my messages on Twitter But, I don’t care anymore, for you’re the one that I adore I know I’ve been an attention whore to the core I will prove it to you that I’m stronger than you realize You are my one and only that I prize in my elegant eyes Feeling like I’ve been living under a rock Sorry, hon, but I’m sick of the small talk And I’m cranky if I don’t get what I want when I want…your words are like the price of bronze When I’m with you, I’m satisfied frankly and that’s not all Your words is what I feed upon day and night – waiting for your lovely, yet prudent response When I get my new cellphone, you are gonna be my first call I’ve grown attached to you and I don’t know why It’s the things you do that I love – I can’t deny Trying to cram all these lines together – my mind is a white feather Nevertheless, you're making me feel better, despite the gloomy, yet sunny weather I can’t go outside because I miss you so – didn’t you know? I am on the spot light in my own personal stage though No matter what I write, I am lost in a mixture of solitude and words I will prove it to you that I’m stronger than you realize You are my one and only that I prize in my elegant eyes Feeling like I’ve been living under a rock Sorry, hon, but I’m sick of the small talk
