I will close my eyes tonight

And I know I'll dream of you.

I'll think of what could be,

And wonder if it'll come true.



There hasn't been a day yet

Where I have shed a tear.

Where will we be in a month?

What will happen in a year?



If you should ever read this,

And to yourself you say,

"I love her as much as she loves me."

Then I'll be here to stay.



I'll hold your hand with pride,

I'll make sure I kiss you goodbye,

I'll keep the tune you played

Locked deep inside...

There comes a time in life when you have to let go of all the pointless drama and the people who create it, and surround yourself with people who make you laugh so hard you forget the bad, and focus solely on the good. after all, life is too short
