This Story Is Ours

Falling's never been happy-ending
Always left me with nothing
Promised myself I wouldn't love again
Told myself it was all in vain
But whenever I'm nearby you
This feeling feels new
And I know you too are terrified
I've read it in your eyes

So different yet the same
To everyone it's just a game

Every once in a while
I plaster on another fake smile
And the world smiles back at me
But he's the only one I see
Anchor in the raging waters
Healing my soul despite it broken
Too many words left unspoken
As this story can't be ours
Though inside of our hearts
There's this shadow we fear of love

Last night as we swayed to the music
When you held me close
Scattered pieces fell into place
Shining eyes and bright smiles
Crying out loud the lyrics
Like a prayer to the universe
A secret oath that the song was ours
In that moment the love story was real
God, how I wish it would last

Tell me, can we love again
When we've been betrayed?

Every once in a while
I plaster on another fake smile
And the world smiles back at me
But he's the only one I see
Anchor in the raging waters
Healing my soul despite it broken
Too many words left unspoken
As this story can't be ours
Though inside of our hearts
There's the shadow of love we dread.
