Because You Heard Me
Hush,
Awkward,
Just three words,
Silent and strange,
Why did I say it?
It was foolish of me,
Now I have fallen too far,
Love is a painful fickle thing,
I never should have fallen in love,
So I cry to the shining stars above.
Why?
Bad Luck,
My own faut,
But what of you?
I couldn't help it,
It was my heart you caught,
You caught me at a bad time,
When I was singing in the street,
About how beautiful you seemed,
Now I'm alone with an after-image.
