In My Life - On My Own, But Not Alone

Dream of what Tomorrow may bring to our front porch I’m fearless to say that I used to bleed out remorse Before I met you…of course I used to cry myself asleep because I felt so alone Before I met you, I was on my own Some say “you must pay the price one way or another”, but I say take your time and let your happiness never last For we are meant to be together forever...live for the now and future and don't look back at the wretched past You don't have to bottle up your tears Let them pour out of your eyes - you've concealed them for years...replace them with cheers, not doubts and fears *chorus* I never thought that I HAD the bravery and the time to save you from the world of woe’s demise – I’m very protective over you like a momma bear But, I must tell you someday, so that you’re aware That you are someone special in my heart – I can’t conceal the truth of what I feel for you deep inside In my life, in my life, I’m still stuck in the solitary cave In my life, in my life, I thought I wasn’t at all brave I was caved in by the cravings of my heart The darkness once ripped me apart But, you repaired me and I recovered pretty fast So, please listen up! I must tell you about my good and bad past Fear doesn’t exist here Get a grip on the rope of hope All anxieties are gone We dream on like daydreamers, awaiting another great, delight-illuminated dawn I’ll love you until my life is no more I’ll love you, even if you have strayed into the darkness I love you from the bottom of the ocean to the heavens above I’ll love you – I won’t get over you and you’re my love at first sight – you were and still are a dazzling, surreal sight – you kiss me and I’m overwhelmed with passionate bliss I will love you if you would step out of the abyss with me I’m fearless to say that I used to bleed out remorse Before I met you…of course I used to cry myself asleep because I felt so alone Before I met you, I was on my own V.11: I want you back in my life so that I can change everything around…trust me, if you dare…and all you give me in return is a vacant, expressionless stare Don’t go…Don’t leave…I want you to stay a while…sit with me on the ground and we’ll hang out with each other, talking about what’s on our mind and cracking up jokes here and there – I’m on my own, but not alone when you’re right there! I’m no longer that magazine, alone on the magazine rack You’re a beloved story – in other words, ~My dream of reality – you are not a ridiculous myth Someday, you’ll stay here with me…I pray…I pray that day would come someday Somehow, you’ll see me through the pain…dismiss the ghosts of the past… There’s days when I feel positive when you’re around At least I'm not grief-stricken or gravity-bound
