I used to live
in the bad part of town...

The pieces of my broken heart
are scattered on the floor...

I hate you because you're shallow
I love you because you're sweet...

When my world came crashing down
When it all just fell apart...

I've lost control of everything
It slips right through my grasp...

Watching you closely
out of the corner of my eye...

I said that our love was gone
we lost it long ago...

I come home
and hear them yell...

I've dreamt of your kisses
that I have yet to taste...

Feeling helpless
to your charm...

Close my eyes and count to ten
breathe in deep and just pretend...

I've never tasted anything quite so sweet
As your kisses in my dreams, when our lips do meet...
