another year has passed now
another cause for something to begin
and you could sense it on our skin
a strange and somehow cold desire...
...
you told me over and over that it was just one night
but what if you didn't mention the other five hundred times
he's more than just some boy, he has love, he has a name
but the way you throw it around, I find it hard to believe that you have changed
...
what is this fantasy that has taken over me?
I'm half-asleep and I am half-dreaming
that you are about to leave this earth
...
well I hope that he loves you like a blazing fire
and I hope that he lets you have all that you need and more
I really hope that he gives you the key to his heart
and just maybe he'll give you the key to his door
...
somewhere along a dusty dirt road
a teenage girl is sitting alone
in a field on a lazy summer day
wondering, just wondering
...
this is a new feeling, one I can't describe
it takes away the joy I used to get from just being alive
this is so revealing, this discovery of mine
I cross my t's almost every day, but I never cross the line
...
it was late and you should have been heading home
but there was something you both just had to know
a feeling that shouldn't exist, but you followed it's beckoning call
forbidden love, you found out, has the sweetest taste of all
...
please let me remind you why I'm still here
it's not because I can't live without you
it's because I still care about you
even though we've changed so much this year
...
