Almost Blonde - Poem Through a Song Lyrics

I watch the sunlight dance through the windows
As it trickles and dribbles through her dimples
And through her beautiful hair
And she's standing there living life without a care
As if nobody's there I had to stop and stare
And she was beautiful
Flowing like the blood inside my arteries
She painted hearts and targets and was practicing her archery
And suddenly everything began to change
Life began to have meaning
And she only learned my name
This was a year ago
I know how things seemed so different
And she's still beautiful
We become so distant
I've fallen apart and I can feel something's missing
Maybe you would know if you just give this a listen
I miss her so much and I'm still madly in love
Hope one day I find the balls to say I love you too much
To see you leave with him away again as we lose touch
Feel my heart skip a beat whenever I lookup
To see your diamond eyes it makes me cry that you want love
By the same guy who told you lies and said that you weren't enough
But who's the one who held you there when the times were rough
I'll always be your shoulder when it's colder
And tell you you're loved

Now I know that we didn't go far
But I'm hoping you'll open your heart
To a guy that can't dance or drive a fancy car
But I hope that you know I was here from the start
Now I know that we didn't go far
But I'm hoping you'll open your heart
To a guy that can't dance or drive a fancy car
But I hope that you know I was here from the start

Now here we are
I never would have guessed
That I'd see your soft smile up against my headrest
I take a moment and inhale feel the heartbeat in my chest
Cause now it beats for you and it never takes a rest
Summer days and summer nights and everything in between
Lake days park days and treating you like a queen
Drive-in movies drinking smoothies you are truly a dream
Someone pinch me you convinced me that my life has meaning
And now I can say that I'm truly blessed
Cause my heart has found a home and it's living with the best
The beauty living in your soul is not like the rest
You know I love you for you
I guess I had to confess

Now you know that I loved you from the start
And I'm thankful you opened your heart
To a guy that can't dance or drive a fancy car
But I know that this time I will give you my heart
Now you know that we won't be apart
And I'm thankful you opened your heart
To a guy that can't dance or drive a fancy car
This isn't the end
This is only the start
