Transplant
There you were, standing right before my eyes
And, in the dreams of last night
I dreamt my eyes were captivated upon you
Can anyone tell me if what I felt was a sign
I’ve always been the one to question why
Things happen and the reasons for them
There was a time in my life
When in the course of a day
I wouldn’t think of a thing but you
But, I’ve learned the truth
In the words when people say
‘I love you to death.’
And, I guess that’s just what I did
‘If I could have been older.’
I guess that’s my excuse
Poor I know, but it’s the truth
I was so insecure in my youth
Thinking you might figure out who I wasn’t
But, I guess that’s who I was with you
And, that’s such old news
But, I guess that’s who I was with you
I guess that’s who I was
Now that time has opened up my eyes
It’s my duty now to try and revive
The innocence that I stole from you
If I could transplant what good I have inside
And, masterfully cut away your emptiness with a knife
I would gladly take on the weight I made you carry
There was a time in my life
You were standing right before my eyes
And, in a dream last night
I dreamt my eyes were still captivated upon you
