I might never be your knight in shinin' armour.

  Yeah, I'm not him. Not the one they said to have saved your life a few years back. Not the one that you promised a marriage to.

I might never be the one you take home to mother.

  I heard people say that it was you who brought him home, saying that you wanted to marry him when you got old enough.

But I can be the one, be the one tonight.

  But tonight, let me bring you out of this house. Into my car, we can go to the amusement park. We can go wherever.

But if you like causing trouble up in hotel rooms,

And if you like having secret little rendezvous.

  We could meet up secretly, you say you're going to a friend's house and I bring you to some random hotel where we can trash the place, let out our wild sides.

If you like to do the things you know that we shouldn't do, then baby I'm perfect.

  I know you want to live life, I know you want to experience things that your family says no to. I know you need the escape. I'll gladly be that escape.

When I first saw you from across the room.

  We met at a house party, a formal event. I saw you there standing beside your parents, looking like the perfect doll. You were smiling but I knew it was fake, what you wanted was far from being there. What you wanted was to spread your wings and fly.

  So I'll give it to you. I'll steal you from your cage, let you roam free until they notice that you're gone.

So let's start right now.

  Take my hand, put your hand in mine. From this moment on, we are secret little rebels running off for a taste of freedom.

I might never be the hands you your heart in,

Or the arms that hold you any time you want them.

  Yeah, I'll accept it. I'll accept that you have him by your side. That I'm not staying in your life for long.

But that don't mean that we can't live here in the moment.

'Cause I can be the one you love from time to time.

  But I'll enjoy it while I can, enjoy your smiles and laughter. Your bright shining eyes when you see something you like. I will be the one you temporarily leave your heart with and trust for the few hours we spend together. And when you go home, I'll pass it back to you. Back to where it was meant to be.

I'm not good at making promises.

  That was why I did not promise you that we were never going to get caught. I never promised that you would not get hurt.

  But I tried my best to make you happy and now I dream about the days you would come running towards me, excitedly shouting out the name "Papii". And at social events I stare at you, right next to him, smiling but your eyes dull.

  Now I ask myself, should I have done more to save you from this life you have right now? People say that I'm capable of anything, but I personally feel that, there was one thing I could not do.

  And I regret that I didn't try harder.
