Fell In Love, Sort Of
I fell in love was it chance was it a twist of fate
Looked into her eyes and fell in love
I fell in love as I saw it
thought it would be a made for TV movie
sitting in the audience watching the actors
wishing I was one of them
I fell out of love as she saw it
Love was supposed to be a song a gold record but
she didn't buy it and fell out of love as she saw it
Looked into her eyes and I saw a storm
Holding onto lightning as the thunder got louder and louder
When human nature collides with artificial love the fantasy melts
Looked into her eyes and saw disappointment and sadness
Holding grudges for a reason or no reason sucking it in like a vacuum cleaner never cleaning the clogged filter
My song was a pop song a one hit wonder once it left the charts I was done
I hear footsteps following me only shadows are dancing
The unwelcome song starts and stops inside my brain
And all I can do is dodge my past as the music becomes louder and louder and hope for a twist of fate
Frank (Black) Blacharczyk
