The One That Got Away

So, tell me…

In an alternate reality or the next life

The New Elysium or perfect paradise,

If all my secrets were yours to keep,

Would you wanna be mine?

I know, we never met

Miles and miles, apart we stayed

But you, only you saw, through that smile

And so, you’d tell me about the bright side.

For hours and hours, we’d stay up at night

Making plans, till we’d see the first light

The deals and promises would be ours to keep,

And I’d go to bed, with a smile, etched too deep.

So, tell me…

In an alternate reality or the next life

The New Elysium or perfect paradise,

If all my secrets were yours to keep,

Would you wanna be mine?

I wish forever had no ending and that it was too long

Then I’d get to say it all, as much as I’d want.

But I do wanna hear you speak, sometimes.

And so, maybe… just for a while, I could make all your problems, mine.

When things take a turn and slowly intensify

You’d need someone and I’d be the one, so for once, maybe… you could try.

I know, my words seem too treacherous, for you to believe

But my heart is sincere and someday you’ll see.

So, tell me…

In an alternate reality or the next life

The New Elysium or perfect paradise,

If all my secrets were yours to keep,

Would you wanna be mine?
