***One & Only***

I go through these pages, 
searching for the silhouette of you.
Hoping I find peace in words,
Hoping I'd find the truth.

How could you be so perfect?
Beautiful in every way.
and you say you look terrible..
and you say it every day.

Why would someone like you
ever fall in love with me? 
Well you aren't just anyone..
because you're my one and only.

I walk along with your shadow,
hoping it would one day wave goodbye.
I can see that I weigh you down sometimes..
and I hate it when you cry.

You sit beside me in the car,
with a cigarette between your lips..
and I hate it when you touch my face,
you draw hearts with your fingertips.

How could someone like me
ever fall in love with you? 
I never told you how I felt,
But somehow you always knew.

The moments we shared
Why don't they fade to grey?
We just assume we're happy
when we just want to run away.
