Enjoying the View

I cannot help that my heart

Falls desperately into his hands

It did this on its own from the start

No one seems to understand



The meaning behind my insanity

It's the cause behind my clueless mind

I cannot help it, can't you see

It's my heart I cannot seem to find



It lies in his hands and he doesn't know

As he goes about his life, it beats

These feelings beat stronger as he goes

About his life walking the streets



I cannot help that he holds my heart

That is lies desperately inside of his hands

It did this from the very start

Yet no one seems to understand



I cannot control it, it falls where it will

I wish I could make it do as I desire

To fall into someone else's, but still

I feel I'm walking a long thin wire



I know it will fall and shatter to pieces

I'm looking for something I cannot grasp

There's this thing inside me longing for release

Something I know that will continue to last



But I wonder as I stand on the edge

If I turn around or fall over the side

My heart is sitting on the ledge

Not knowing what to decide



So I'll stand here and wait, enjoying the view

Waiting for the wind to help me decide

Always unsure of what I will do

Certain I will definitely enjoy this ride
