I close my eyes
And I smile, knowing that everything is alright
To the core, so close that door
Is this happening?
My breath is on your hair, I'm unaware
That you opened the blinds and let the city in
God, you held my hand and we stand
Just taking in everything
chorus:
And I knew it from the start
So my arms are opened wide
And your head is on my stomach
And we're trying so hard not to fall asleep
Here we are on this 18th floor balcony
We're both flying away...
So we talk about moms and dads
About family pasts
Just getting to know where we came from
Our hearts were on display
For all to see
I can't believe this is happening to me
I raise my hand as if to show you I was yours
That I was so yours for the taking
I'm so yours for the taking
And that's when I felt the wind pick up
I grabbed the rail while choking up
These words to say, And then you kissed me....
Chorus
And I'll try to sleep to keep you in my dreams
Til' I can bring you home with me
I'll try to sleep, and when I do I'll keep you in my dreams
Chorus
And I knew it from the start
So my arms are opened wide
And your head is on my stomach
No, we're not going to sleep
Here we are on this 18th floor balcony
We're both flying away...
(Second part of the song)
{{It's Just Me}}
I lost a piece of me in you
I think I left it in your arms
I forget the reasons I got scared
But remembered that I cared quite a lot
You see, but lately I've been on my own
Yeh one, but one by choice
You see that's a first for me, this only me
Yeh there's only me
And I realize for once, it's just me
It's just me
It's just me and I'll find a way to make it
There's no one left to stop me
Here I go
Can we take it from the top?
So what?
So long
So sad
I wanna be strong
Don't try to take this from me
I've already spent living half my life undone
So what?
So long
So sad
I wanna be strong
Don't try to take this from me
I've already spent my life living half undone
I've been talking to my Aunts and Uncles, Mom and Dad again
I've been finding out that I have what this world is called friends
I've tried to push them all away
They push me back and wanna stay
And that's one good thing I have
I'm gonna fill a piece of me
I'm gonna feel at home
I'm gonna make this cloud above me disappear, be gone
I wanna feel a punch inside
My heart beat on the floor
I don't wanna hurt no more
Yeh, It's just me
It's just me and I'll find a way to make it
There's no one left to stop me
Here I go
Can we take it from the top?
So what?
So long
So sad
I wanna be strong
Don't try to take her from me
I've already spent my life living half undone
So what?
So long
So sad
I wanna be strong
Don't try to take her from me
I've already spent my life living half undone
It's me the one who won before
I used to smile but don't no more
I'm living just to watch it all go by
