Martian of Romance
HeatherO5883 2002 (New York)
You look so beautiful today
I want to get to know you
And your home better today
Would you come with me, too?
I need to know
What‘s behind those eyes
Let me see what you have in stock
Before I get entangled in a web of lies
Please don’t make me have to
Stay long enough to find your true flag flying
Yeah I’m curious more than how your day was
But I don’t want to end up crying
Another hopeless romance
Forever in another altitude
I’ll conquer the world
Before I reach your latitude
I’m thinking ahead while
The past still follows
Cleaning up the pieces
From the times I’ve wallowed
Honey I know you don’t want that
Knowing you hide it in the shadows
I can only do so much
Until my words aren’t shallow
