About You

The restless feeling within the confines of my bed
Play tricks on me and the thoughts inside my head.
The feeling of being alone and being lonely
Makes the room feel vast and I can’t look ahead.

I used to see the future clearly with arms open wide,
A girl who fought the tears and never cried,
But the future changes with every passing moment
And a girl once held her head up high with a sense of pride.

The restless feeling within these four walls
Makes the moments of being alone in the halls
Completely forgettable and memorable, all the same
But the four walls don’t erase the feeling of being so small.

We can fall apart and come back together again
There are things still left unsaid, things to explain
And the love that keeps us together holds us true
There’s a spontaneity about you that I love and drives me insane.

The restless feeling within the confines of my heart,
Makes me feel small and listless when we’re apart
But there’s a whisper of a smile, of realization
At the thought of what we could come together and start.

We can hold our hands together and never let go
Even when we’re not together, but we just know
How we care and how we love and how it doesn’t matter
How far apart we are, because we can only ever grow.

The restless feeling within the limits that we place
On our lives, our time and the moments that we embrace
Make us vulnerable to each other and words that we say
But you smile and spin me, despite my lack of grace.

And even in the times that we don’t speak or we disagree,
I fall asleep with the thoughts of your arms around me.
