03.09.10: Smile on my Face, Song in my Heart

"Never had a chance"

Do you ever feel like the one,
the one who does it all?
One look from him
and instantly you're gone?

sitting all alone,
then suddenly, you're here...
You don't know what I'm feeling
And I don't think you care.

You're the love I never knew
that didn't know I loved.
The one I know with whom
I never had a chance.

The sad part of my tale,
we never were that close.
My dream is just
a schoolgirl's fantasy.

An just like ever other,
I'll keep longing for that place,
the one for which
I never had a chance.

You're the love I never knew
that didn't know I loved.
The one I know with whom
I never had a chance.

You can call me sappy,
or a silly little girl.
But when you hear these words,
You know you've been there before.

Sitting all alone and
suddenly he's gone.
I don't know what I'm feeling,
and I don't know that I care.

You're the love I never knew
that didn't know I loved.
The I know with whom
I never had a chance.

"Settle Down"

I see the days pass by
like clockwork they turn.
I feel me getting older
and the age begins to burn.
To the girl, I am old.
To the wife, I am young.
But stuck here in between,
my song has just begun.

They say it's time to settle down,
to toss my youth aside.
I just can't really bring myself
to crush my spirit's pride.

Is this really what I want?
A job? A life? A man?
Do I really need another
to sit and hold and my hand?

Questions like a flood
creep slowly in my mind.
But, the clock keeps on ticking
turning fast in perfect time.

They say it's time to settle down,
to toss my youth aside.
I just can't really bring myself
to crush my spirit's pride.
