La La Love

pace the room
and look to tommorrow
hope that you'll find a thing to distract your sorrow

bite your lip
un hook the phone
and hope that you'll find a way to bare being alone

but
as the truth does settle
as the sun falls for the night
as the silence surrounds all that once was light

you feel the burden and weight of this emotion you're in
knowing either way you cannot win
you must give in 
the temptation is strong
just embrace the assurance that life goes wrong
despite best laid plans and hopes and prayers
but, know that life can take you anywhere

so

pace the room
and look to tommorrow
hope that being apart doesnt mean an end

bite your lip
just distract your sorrow
by phoning and kissing and loving again
