Mood; Thoughtful
Song; Melodies and Desires - Lykke Li
Love is the harmony
Desire is the key
Love is the melody
Now sing it with me
And I'll let myself drown in these thoughts,
These conclusions,
Fighting with myself,
A war, a great war,
Heart and mind, they'll continue to fight.
Neither will give up,
They'll wrestle,
Never sign a treaty, never come to terms.
The bitterest of enemies to ever walk the earth.
I've understood,
I've listened.
You and I are in a tango,
Inevitable, perhaps?
But we dance, we slide,
twirl, spin - it's beautiful, from a distance,
But once you see the words we mouth to one another,
It's not so beautiful is it?
A break, inevitable, as well,
Because I'm trying to save myself,
As you tried to save me.
For my attitude is not the sweet, loving girl that you encountered,
It is not the girl that swept you off your feet;
But I never really did sweep you away,
Obviously I didn't, or you would've held on.
You were helping me open up,
My door may not have been wide,
But for you to say it wasn't even cracked is incredibly... harsh.
I must've let you in, slowly, slightly,
To show you what I showed you,
To tell you what I told you;
To have my desire of being with you,
Loving you, wanting you, showing you what was right.
You pull me into your arms,
They're warm, soft,
Your heart races, then slows,
Butterflies fluttering come to mind.
We need to define what we are,
We need to understand it,
Put limitations,
Stick to them.
For once, you can't break the rules;
Not even slightly.
Every kiss you give me is a new swarm of butterflies,
A new heart beat skipped;
You can't do this to me,
You can't take this kind of control;
And yet, you can't leave my side,
For it's quite clear I need you,
And even moreso clear, you need me.
We'll wait this out,
We'll learn what it is we're meant to be.
If only you weren't so afraid,
If only you could see how happy you could be;
If you could let your guard down,
You'd be the happiest girl in the world, by my side.
Everyone could be happy, you know.
It's just a matter of wanting it.
I want it.
I want it sooo bad.
To constantly feel the sun on my cheek,
To never feel cold and alone.
And even when I am cold, to know that someone is there,
Ready to love me, hold onto me, and need me.
I'm ready for that.
But obviously, you aren't.
And obviously, you're afraid.
But you don't need to be afraid,
Because I could be the one to love you for as long as you need love, my dear.
It's simple.
Face your fears;
And you'll feel my arms around you.
It'll feel so right.
