Take Care of My Heart Or Italian Girl

Nineteen weeks One hundred and thirty three days three thousand one hundred and ninety two hours one hundred and ninety one thousand five hundred twenty minutes eleven million four hundred and ninety one thousand two hundred seconds It will take me this long to see you again Off you fly Back home to Italy Back home to Pinerolo Home with your books Home with your personality Home with your looks Home with my heart I said I was done Done with love Done with Romance Done with getting hurt Done with these Rosalines Somehow you made me break my word All the pounding on my wall Girls tried to break it down Like Frankenstein’s mob But along you came So much as leaning on my wall You made it collapse I never thought I’d get the chance To see the other side of that wall Now we have said good bye That airplane will be boarding Carrying my heart away to Italy But this is not the end This is the mid season break the one more episode on Netflix this is A Pair of Blue Eyes Call me a hopeless romantic It’s completely true I’m just an American boy Falling for an Italian girl I’ll be waiting Until that plane lands again in August Take care of my heart But enjoy your time Be free and run wild If we are meant to be We will be
