John Hamilton Poet Lyric

I Thought We Were Done

I thought we were done!

I remember everything about you,
I remember your smile,
a first kiss under the moon

I remember somethings I don't want to,
that look on your face,
I knew we were doomed

What are the chances I'd find you here?
One in a million,
but still, we're here

What a predicament we are in!
Do you still feel it? Should we give in?
Should we celebrate?  Give into fate?

Bridge
You do look amazing,
well so do you!
Oh no what are we doing?
I thought we were done!

Chorus
My heart is beating way too fast
Even though I know...it won't last
I don't mind doing it all over again
Starting all over again-with you
Do you mind? At least think it over!
While there's still time-can we start over?

Bridge
You do look amazing,
well so do you!
Oh no what are we doing?
I thought we were done!


I guess you've moved on from what's her name,
Could it be you were thinking... thinking of me?
It doesn't matter now, it's all the same
Can we start again? Does that sound so crazy?

Bridge
You do look amazing,
well so do you!
Oh no what are we doing?
I thought we were done!

Chorus
My heart is beating way too fast
Even though I know...it won't last
I don't mind doing it all over again,
Starting all over again-with you
Do you mind? At least think it over!
While there's still time-can we start over?


Bridge
You do look amazing,
well so do you!
Oh no what are we doing?
I thought we were done!

I remember ...
everything ...
about ...
you...
fade

Vijay Galia October 15, 2020 at 11:31 AM What a masterpiece! John Hamilton October 15, 2020 at 5:39 PM Thanks Vijay!

Andrea Dietrich June 24, 2020 at 6:26 PM I kept clicking on things and finally i found one I have not seen and it's super cool. I don't think it's crazy at all if two people want it badly enough. the bridge to this one is super cute. John Hamilton June 24, 2020 at 9:00 PM Thanks Andrea, I thought it would be interesting to make it like a real conversation that would happen in real life, as a song I see this as a duet of sorts maybe a Broadway play not for radio (I don't think) Oh btw I was trying to think of a way to use your cinder girl in a song but it's a no go, if you think of another one I'll give it a try.

Casarah Nance October 17, 2019 at 7:44 PM My heart was racing. I could feel the relationship. Cool. John Hamilton October 17, 2019 at 9:46 PM Thanks Cas, nice to see you posting and gracing my page again!

Richard Lamoureux October 14, 2019 at 9:07 AM Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton should have sung this duet. Well done John. John Hamilton October 14, 2019 at 10:45 AM Thanks Rick, yeah you got that right, some just can't resist the physical attraction even though they know a long term relationship just won't work. Good analysis of the write, thanks for stopping by!
