Adored

yesterday his name left my lips
like a song over played on the radio
you used to dance to it all night
now all you hear are the same flat lines
it's time for me to feel somethin'
a whole different world
one that I can find inside my own
there's nothin like the love of The One
but nothin' like the arms that hold you when he's gone

and I'm sorry
but today I'm gonna sing again
I'm sorry
there's something in his eyes, you can't contend
I'm sorry
someone's heart will sync to your drum
I'm sorry
you can't expect me to wait and hum
while you make up your mind

yesterday I saw closer, those windows
like two mirrors into a life with less sacrifice
of the things I know are right in my soul
and those eyes make this verse never get old
it's time that I set you free
cuz I know without me, you could fly
it's not that it hasn't been fun, darling
but there's a beginning after every goodbye


and I'm sorry
but today I'm gonna sing again
I'm sorry
there's something in his eyes, you can't contend
I'm sorry
someone's heart will sync to your drum
I'm sorry
you can't expect me to wait and hum
while you make up your mind


and I ... I
wish this wasn't about me
and I... I
hope that someday you will see
don't cry... I
know that you deserve much more
I... know that you will be adored



and I'm sorry
but today I'm gonna sing again
I'm sorry
there's something in his eyes, you can't contend
I'm sorry
someone's heart will sync to your drum
I'm sorry
you can't expect me to wait and hum
while you make up your mind

I dreampt of your smile last night
the way the moonlight plays
off of your shining eyes
I wished I could breathe you in
then remembered I was too late again
and that your heart had already gone

Now it's been weeks since I spoke to you
months since you spoke to me
I don't wanna be alone in holding on
but I'm holding to this rule of three
and I know I can't tell your heart
what to think when we're a part
but I'd give anything
just for something

I heard you were doin' alright
lovin' every day
wish I could be by your side
I wish I could hear your sweet song
you laughter and your hands
is that part of us forever gone?


Now it's been weeks since I spoke to you
months since you spoke to me
I don't wanna be alone in holding on
but I'm holding to this rule of three
and I know I can't tell your heart
what to think when we're a part
but I'd give anything
just for something
