I Know

I know
By LoLa

I know you know, she said
I woke up on your side of bed
To have your eyes through lullibies
A manic state; no alibis

I know we lost our way back home
We're making up for time, alone
You know i'll always see the light
Lost between the darkest nights

It's all right to see the truth
so much time lost in our youth
Know that i'll keep you in my heart
Now that our ways, are found apart

Times that we held through revelry
The price we paid for memories
White lies we told in desparate screams
Without a sound, we made a scene

In 60 days, we found our joy
Splitting waves we soon destoyed
Stranded in the desert sand
Mirages where you held my hand

No silence here to voice my doubts
No telling what you're all about
Those crashing waves on western shores
Meet concrete dreams I lost before

An Atlantic sunrise chills this night
You're sleeping now where you still fight
Delightful smiles are stolen now
With bittersweetness in my brow

I hope you know that I still know
Cause we still have what's left below
Those blurry nights of losing sleep
See you around; words meant to keep
