Destiny
I'm tired but sleep isn't an option,
There is a light but that's only my illusion,
I can never find the perfect reason,
To finally give up during this season.
Tonight I just close my eyes,
Falling down, but still dreaming of the skies.
Wherever I may be, I think suddenly
When did I lose my destiny?
You are standing there waiting for me,
Although you fell asleep without me,
First thing I saw when I woke up is you,
Can you please tell me it's true?
My heart beats so fast I want this to ever last,
Can you tell me it's not too fast?
'Cause when I think of you,
All I see is heaven that never coming true.
I want you, I want to feel you,
I can imagine your touch,
Thinking of your heart beat completing mine at last,
Brings me to the irresistible lust.
Tonight I just close my eyes,
Falling down, but still dreaming of the skies
Wherever I may be, I think suddenly
When did I lose my destiny?
I can see you looking closer in me,
And I know this guy is all I ever want to be.
Just like a broken mirror being used,
In order to find the perfect excuse.
I can sense the fear whenever you are not here,
The pain fades away whenever you are near.
The tears fall and my heart breaks,
As if someone hit me with a mace.
All I ever wanted is someone to love,
Wondered if I could find it up above,
What matters most is being loved in return,
Or else it doesn't worth the pain.
Tonight I just close my eyes,
Falling down, but still dreaming of the skies
Wherever I may be, I think suddenly
When did I lose my destiny?
When I think of you I know it's true,
When I see your face I finally have a clue,
An idea of how I want to spend the rest of my life,
Because with you I want to reach the skies.
I keep falling down, deeper in the dark,
But as far as I go, you always keep me up.
I've never thought I could feel this way,
With you I know it's the same way.
Tonight I just close my eyes,
Falling down, but still dreaming of the skies
Wherever I may be, I think suddenly
I finally found my destiny...
