9:47 P.M.
Now picturing you with someone else
When there�s so much I just can�t see
Still trying to convince myself
I don�t care what you think of me
Wish I were still on vacation
Where we first met
Try to open up lines of communication
In an attempt to NOT forget
I packed a bathing suite
And a formal dress
You quickly became more than a substitute
For my daily confusion and madness
I witnessed the islands beauty
In the reflection of your eyes
Lost in a moment of serendipity
Ignoring my own heart when she cries
Knowing I will have to give you up
Shortly after 7 suns have set
My head says I�ve had enough
My heart wants so much more than she will get
Feelings become sublime
As I question my own will
Falling short on time
I swallow this jagged pill
I probably won�t see you again
But still tell you to call
We act like we are friends
Yet I'm so willing to give it all
You brought something out
Something so deep inside
Paradise pacified my doubts
Yet my heart can't get past my heads foolish pride
I am but a little girl
Within the perception of your gaze
Longing to be the center of your world
I become further lost within the haze
I can�t think straight
With time I become bolder
I just can't concentrate
As I feel the flame become much colder
Remember how we once danced on air
Everyone watched with envy
I find myself wishing you were there
But you don't request my company
I ask when and if I will see you
You tell me time will tell
Don't ask me for the truth
Because the distance has been hell
Miles set us apart
And boundaries come between
But this little girl�s lonely heart
Still wishes you were here with me
So happy when we're together
Never wanted to let you go
I wanted to promise you forever
But now you may never know
