Impossible Hopes
I'm a silly little girl
With silly little dreams
With silly little wishes
And impossible hopes...
I'm too dramatic, and often tragic
And, I realize that I'm not the only one
Who's been through, what I've been through
I know, that everybody's got something
That they had to leave behind...
But, I just can't stop myself from wondering
"What-if"...
And, today I thought I saw your ghost
But, it turned out it was only you
Just seeing you, made my hands shake
And I got this weak feeling, in my knees
For a moment, I couldn't breath
And I had to remind myself, that oxygen was a good thing
So, there you were, and there you went
I wonder now if you saw me, because if you did
You just walked on by...
I don't know what you were doing here
You were gone, so gone
Long gone
Gone, as in a different country
And now you're back
Why?
Who knows, who cares?
Oh, wait, I care
Funny thing, that I still care
Now, it's only a matter of time
Before you come around, 'cause I know you will
A heartbreak, wearing a smile, with a nice ass
And, yeah, for whatever reason, I'm hoping I'll see you
'Cause I still want that dream
The knight in shining armor, with roses, at my door
And apology would be nice, you know, for breaking my heart?
I want that...
I want that dream, that fantasy, I have in my head
Does life ever work out, like you want?
Does the dream ever come true?
I'm a silly little girl
With silly little dreams
With silly little wishes
And impossible hopes...
