Twenty One

Twenty One


So far above, you’ve been flying high with the angels
And still you stand so far above us.
You are amazing to me, when you speak about your problems 
And those things you wish you could have changed; such pain.
Impossible not to like you when all you do is show us love.


So complicated to me, I want to walk inside that mind of yours
And share your empathy, because you speak so elegantly,
When you write about your love life 
And you show us how you really feel on the inside.


A broken heart that we all share.
I want to put us all back together with the pieces we are lost without.
I hope you are happy in love;
I want to find a place I too belong as I too need to be loved.


I’ve met a woman like you, but she will never compare,
To those feelings that I hear in your voice 
And I am still having these doubts,
But she loves me like I love your songs; they are so good!
So I think I will let her become my reason to believe in love.


You got me through to the other side,
When I was lost, you made me see the truth and I too found my way
And now I see all those tears I cried,
Were just a way to regrow the feelings that I thought I threw away.


Now I am happy in love with her,
So I can never tell her of you, or she would just be gone;
But we each share our love for your love songs.
So I will let her have all my devotion,
But I will never forget an album called Twenty One.
