I remember the day
Two blocks over
When you turned that corner
Did you look this way
Was it all in the way
You smiled carelessly
And found the brighter side of all that is
I'm falling for a lover that I didn't even get to see twice
I'm looking for a reason just to up and get you into my life
Forcing fate
To find a hold
Lay me down
In vibrant robes
It should be criminal to see my Mona Lisa passing by
But that's better than sleeping alone with no dreams of asking
Why
It was ever cliche
Forcing closure
On a hopeless shoulder
Fully on display
I was hoping you'd stay
And pass the time with me
We'd find the brightest side of all that is
I'm falling for a lover that I didn't even get to see twice
I'm looking for a reason just to up and get you into my life
Forcing fate
To find a hold
Lay me down
In vibrant robes
It should be criminal to see my Mona Lisa passing by
But that's better than sleeping alone with no dreams of asking
How do I find peace when you've left and you're all that I see
How do I see light in the dark when you're the fire inside me
Should I let go of the claim on that stranger passing by
Forcing fate
To find a hold
Lay me down
In vibrant robes
It should be criminal to see my Mona Lisa passing by
But that's better than sleeping alone with no dreams of asking
Why
Is there ever a day
Chasing corners
When the waiting's over
And you choose my way
