Zigzag Hearts and Pent-Up Dreams

Zigzag Hearts and Pent-up Dreams No matter how perfect everything seemed I guess we had our faults Sitting here, I'm almost crying And I can't seem to stop. You made everything seem so right So perfectly fixing mistakes Nothing felt wrong, it was all correct But you've made my heart break. You said I was all you wanted And you were everything to me And yet, you say we don't belong I guess there was something I didn't see. And all at once, I'm alone A piece of me is gone Once again, I made the classic mistake I did what I knew was wrong. I opened myself up to you And make myself feel weak I should have known better than to hold your hand Or let you dazzle me when you speak. I suppose it was "just a crush" In your eyes, that's how it seemed And now, I'm broken once again With a zigzag heart and pent-up dreams.
