Silver Lining

My love is always unexpected
My love was cruel and raw
I dedicated it all to him
I thought he was the best thing i ever saw

I thought i was in the clear
But the devil is in the details
It takes one to know one
I guess that's why i thought that was a fairytale

Everyone just screamed "no!"
And i knew that they were right
But i wanted him so much
I refused to let him go

And that's when i was broke
Cause i thought he meant it all
But the truth is i was blinded
From all the way down that i would fall

I thought the dark looked better
You couldn't see all the details
But suddenly you're so bright
I don't want to look at anything else

I didn't know it would be you at first
That was the last thing i expected
I was afraid that you would hurt me
So i just beat around the bush

But every cloud has a silver lining
And you made me give away a secret
I'm an open book now
All you have to do is ask me

Loving you is as natural as breathing
I know i sound like a mad woman
But love does that to you
I hope you feel like that too

I once thought that was the peak
I thought that was all that love could be
I once thought love hurt like a bullet in a crossroad
But the truth is that it melts like an embered iron heart

I don't ever want to see you in the street
10 years from now
And pretend that i don't know
Pretend i don't still love you
Please stay
