Even in the dark of this room,
I can see the brightness in your eyes
staring back at me from your side of the bed.
The tears that had been unconsciously trickling
down my blush-streaked cheeks
Suddenly didn't seem to matter.
All the anger that is in me,
from those who have hurt me in the past,
Those few moments where it catches up with me,
And without thinking,
I blurt out all these ridiculous accusations,
None of which you are truly guilty of
But in the clarity of the moments to follow,
Moments like this,
Where we lie in the dark, staring at each other,
Both of us waiting for the other to utter the first word,
I recognize what's really on my mind...
And in this milky twilight,
melodies pouring from the fingertips of paul van dyk,
you and me --
there's a calmness that overtakes me
Just 10 minutes ago,
I was sitting awake in this bed,
Crying, angry, knowing you were in the next room
And mad for a thousand reasons that were unjustifiable,
except in my twisted head.
I wanted to scream, to leave --
But something in me stayed here,
And now, just that look
Captivates me, like always
And i'm falling asleep staring back at you,
Thinking all these things that have a place in my thoughts,
But never seem to find my tongue
And i think how damn lucky i am,
Just to have one or two moments like this...
And in the morning,
It's like those midnight tears never fell
They had no right to enter this room at all
And even though i'm 20 minutes late,
And my hair is still not dry,
And i can only find one shoe,
And i haven't packed my books,
It's so easy for me to crawl back into your sleeping arms,
And you smile, eyes still closed,
And i'm so thankful that i get these couple minutes
To remind myself why I'm so in love with you...
Even if you don't know it yet.
Please don't be like all the others...
I think, as i cover you up and put on my other shoe.
Please don't be that same guy, who makes me cry every night,
And throw things in frustration every morning,
And worry and wonder and obsess at 12:43 a.m. when you're still not here...
I couldn't bear it.
Please don't leave one day,
And make all these empty promises to always come back...
In fact,
please just stay here, in the twilight,
and fall in love with me,
the way i am with you...
Please... just stay.
