"tonight" (Again)

Tonight I felt myself falling into your clutches again
It’s like the more I try to hide my love for you the deeper I fall in
I know that you’re my bad habit, but like an addict I have to have it
Allowing myself to fall deeper and deeper in 
Knowing that the next day we’ll be right back at it again
Arguing, making accusations and claming to be out of love again

Tonight I found myself falling back into your clutches again
It’s a thing called love and even though we know it’s over...Love won’t let it end
So maybe we should try one last time to make it work again
But in my heart I know that in a few hours, days, or weeks 
We’ll be right back at it again
Arguing, throwing out accusations, and claming to be out of love again

But then one night I’ll find myself falling right back into your clutches 
Again...

Decisions

We grew up together 
But grew apart 
You chose the fast life
I chose to go far
You chose to criticize me 
I chose to look over you 
You chose to make wrong decisions  
And I chose to think things through
You always told me that I wouldn’t amount to anything
But maybe that’s because you didn’t accomplish many things
But through all that I still love you...
And you inspired me to be better than you

The Times

When you asked me to be your girl I said no 
But now that you’re gone it’s hard to let go
I miss the times we use to talk
The times when you made me feel like I was your only train of thought.
The many times that you told me that you loved me... 
And had me thinking in my head this is going to be my hubby! 
I think about the many times I said no 
And the many times you wouldn’t let go
The many times you said you’d never do anything to hurt me.
And now I cry at the though of you and how you and how you deserted me.

Could It Be

COULD IT BE I'M TOO YOUNG TO THINK...
THINK THAT YOU'RE THE ONE FOR ME
BUT STILL MY MIND CAN'T BLIND SITE WHAT MY HEART NOW BEATS
IN MY HEART I KNOW YOU'RE THE ONE FOR ME

COULD IT BE I'M TOO YOUNG TO SPEAK....
SPEAK THE WORDS I LOVE YOU SO OPENLY
CAUSE IS THAT NOT WHAT MY HEART NOW BEATS
SO ISN'T THAT WHAT MY LIPS SHALL SPEAK                          
IN MY HEART I KNOW THAT YOU’RE THE ONE FOR ME

COULD IT BE I'M TOO YOUNG TO FEEL...
FEEL A LOVE SO STRONG AND KNOW THAT IT'S REAL
CAUSE IS THAT NOT WHAT MY HEART NOW BEATS, MY
MIND NOW THINKS, AND MY LIPS SHALL SPEAK
IN MY HEART I KNOW YOU'RE THE ONE FOR ME

COULD IT BE I'M TOO YOUNG TO SEE...
SEE THAT MY LIFE REVOLVES AROUND YOU AND ME
CAUSE IS THAT NOW WHAT MY HEART NOW BEATS, MY MIND NOW THINKS, MY LIPS SHALL SPEAK, AND 
MY EYES NOW SEE 
THAT I'M NOT TOO YOUNG AND YOU'RE THE ONE FOR ME
