If I Could Just Stop Running
If I could just stop running,
Would you lay on rooftops with me
In the middle of the summer
And hold my hand
As I tip-toe across the ledge
Beneath the moon?
Let the world fade into
The background behind us,
And oh my god, you're beautiful.
I could spend hours
Just studying you.
It could all be so simple;
Hand in hand
And cheek to cheek,
Dance with me
To the rhythm of your heartbeat.
Lock the door
And hold me close,
We can pretend that we
Have no where else to go.
Sundown, starry-eyed,
I apologize.
It's times like this that
I don't know what to say,
And when I do
You're too far away.
The girl in my head
Has all of these beautiful dreams,
But it's so hard to speak
When I can barely breathe.
Remind me again
Why it took so long
To get here.
