She layed there crying
The lights turned off
Whispering as she sobbed
With a pillow to her face
The stars out the window
Shone brighter than before
Everything was waiting
Listening to her words
Her lover was so far
Not knowing what's happening
Her friends turn on her
Saying things behind her back
She asked herself
Why she is here tonight
Crying in the dark
And no one bothering to care
Locking feelings away
Building up 'til they burst
When suddenly
Her heart jumped to a sound
By her bed on the table
The phone started ringing
Answering to her boyfriend
Who just called to say 'Hi!'
She smiled!
