Deep Into the Night

Deep into the night my mind is at ease 
Yet my heart stays restless. 
I lay and I look up at the ceiling 
And I ponder what my heart may desire. 
With every beat and blood flow thru, 
It releases a heartbreak or maybe even 
two.

These memories I replay over and over,
Time after time,
It’s always something 
That makes me smile.
I loved them and lost them. 
NO! They lost me.
I have no regrets because
They helped me find me. 


Deep into the night my mind is at ease 
Yet my heart stays restless. 
I lay and I look up at the ceiling 
And I ponder what my heart may desire. 
With every beat and blood flow thru,
 It releases a heartbreak or maybe even 
two.

I walk to my window
And I stare out to the moon
I daydream and my dreams
Soon become a reality
If only for just a moment.
Time slows
As I fantasize.
I’m too old for the fairytales
But yet I still believe.
My heart believes dreams do come true.

Deep into the night my mind is at ease 
Yet my heart stays restless. 
I lay and I look up at the ceiling 
And I ponder what my heart may desire. 
With every beat and blood flow thru,
 It releases a heartbreak or maybe even 
two

My yesterdays formed my todays
And my todays
Will shape my tomorrows.
No regrets and no looking back. 
I pulled thru 
And am stronger than before.
More respect 
And self-love,
More picking myself up 
And more positivity,
More laughter
And more joy,
No more sorrow
And lots more happiness.
My goals are aimed
And I’m my only target.

Deep into the night my mind is at ease 
Yet my heart stays restless. 
I lay and I look up at the ceiling 
And I ponder what my heart may desire. 
With every beat and blood flow thru,
 It releases a heartbreak or maybe even 
two

Geared 
And ready
For whatever may come.
Heavily guarded,
Steel walls all up.
As I lay 
And look up at the ceiling
And I ponder what my heart may desire.
With every beat and blood flow thru,
It releases a heartbreak or maybe even 
two.
Deep into the night my mind is at ease 
Yet my heart stays restless.

Deep into the night my mind is at ease 
Yet my heart stays restless. 
I lay and I look up at the ceiling 
And I ponder what my heart may desire. 
With every beat and blood flow thru,
 It releases a heartbreak or maybe even 
two
