The Way You Smile
I don't want another fairytale to fix me
I don't want to let him in because i don't trust me
How will this ever begin
Im standing here waiting
its quarter past ten
I look at you
looking right back at me.
when I smile
there you smile
We're 10 steps behind and zero ahead
But i know down in my heart,
things are better off unsaid
Its a cold frosty morning,
there you are looking my way
as i close my eyes
I see us dancing under the moonlight
You take my hand
while we awkwardly stand
the walls that were built
come tumbling down
while this frown
turns upside down
and we both smile
drowning in eachothers eyes
There is more than distance between us
but we both know
that we have lost this thing called trust
i'll thank you for being there
but Its time for me to leave
we're 10 steps behind and zero ahead
But I know things will always be better
off unsaid
