The Best of Intentions

With the best of intentions, I wear my heart on my sleeve,

I feel no reprieve, when all I wanted was a lover in you.

It’s the same mistake I make, time after time, You’d think I’d learn all the while I keep getting burned.

And all I wanted was a lover in you.

My heart tends to get the best of me, having nothing but the best of intentions, a runaway train bound for heartbreak.

Driving me insane, wanting to feel nothing when all I can feel is everything.

I’m true to myself, as much as one can be a wide open book for all to read.

No need to hide behind a wall of shame, it’s written all over my face, once again.

With the best of intentions, I wear my heart on my sleeve,

I feel no reprieve, when all I wanted was a lover in you.

It’s the same mistake I make, time after time, you’d think I’d learn all the while I keep getting burned.

And all I wanted was a lover in you.

I want nothing more than to hold you in my arms, kiss you all the while, falling prey to all your charms, lose myself in your smile, while your eyes capture a glimpse of my soul and I’m lost in rapture….

My head in the clouds, and I’m treading air, wanting fantasy to be reality, my soul is bare.

I dream while awake, and tend to think out loud.

I’m riding a speeding bullet, scraping my feet on the ground.

Straight to your heart, I’m hoping to go, skipping each beat, a whirlwind of hope, getting caught in the loop, I’m losing speed and I realise, I’ve lost you along the way.

With the best of intentions, I wear my heart on my sleeve,

I feel no reprieve, when all I wanted was a lover in you.

It’s the same mistake I make, time after time, You’d think I’d learn all the while I keep getting burned.

And all I wanted was a lover in you.
