Beautifully Desperate

The sunshine in your eyes gleams of dreams of past and tomorrow, blinking away the sorrow of wounded tears spilled these past few years You always felt that something was missing from your life was it the countless nights you wish we had or is it the way I always made you feel that things weren't as bad Could have been anything or nothing but something of everything Wish your eyes didn't look so sad But you're beautiful and amazing when you're dreaming and stargazing beyond the houses in your eyes to bluer looking skies your hopes telling the sweetest lies It's a wonderful life with you standing in this field yearning and churning for a better yield I guess it's a beautiful thing that you are the way you are Without you I never would have made it this far Beautifully Desperate, how do you cling onto what you have Never understood how you could have been so brave, but glad that you have sunrise to sunset, dreaming about the friends that you could have met Always settling for less than the best, but you seemed to have passed the test Standing with a fist empty of hope, clenched teeth, at the end of your rope Beautifully Desperate, Beautifully Desperate But stronger you're stronger than I am
