I was still young and naive,
Her smile could brighten the darkest sky,
Cuddling on that golden beach,
We wished upon a shooting star.
So, I looked into her eyes and with a smile, I asked,
“Are you the one that’ll stay with me?”
And watched as you silently walked away.
Harden my heart; feel no more,
That’s the way I ought to be.
Then I met him,
He melted my heart; made me feel strong,
Even allowed me to believe again,
That true love might actually be real.
So, I looked into his eyes and with a smile, I asked,
“Are you the one that’ll stay with me?”
And watched as you silently walked away.
Harden my heart; feel no more,
That’s the way I ought to be.
Older now, more elegant and refined,
Now I know the real thing when I see it,
And finally, there she was,
Sipping her wine across from me.
So, I looked into her eyes and with a smile, I asked,
“Are you the one that’ll stay with me?”
And watched as you silently walked away.
Harden my heart; feel no more,
That’s the way I ought to be.
In me, a bitter heart had fully bloomed,
My walls, reinforced and built high,
Why should I let you in,
Only to be hurt once again?
So, I look at your feet and with a sigh, I asked,
“When will I see you walk away and leave me alone as well”
You pulled me in, held me tight, so warm and safe.
Soften my heart; Please dare to feel one more time,
That’s the way I want to be.
The only way I know how to be,
When I’m in your arms.
