Messy pages
Of a worn out book
I took a chance, I believed
Colors flood
Into the spaces
With nothing left for me
But lightning strikes they say it don’t strike twice
So how many times should we continue to try?
You promised that ivory and pearls would be the things for me
But all that I don’t want to keep
You promised your love would always be there for me; you’re here with me
I wouldn’t ever need to cry
Cry
Tattered edges
The fire is gone
So please just leave
But lightning strikes they say it don’t strike twice
So how many times should we continue to try?
You promised that ivory and pearls would be the things for me
But all that I don’t want to keep
You promised your love would always be there for me; you’re here with me
I wouldn’t ever need to cry
Cry
You promised that ivory and pearls would be the things for me
But all that I don’t want to keep
You promised that ivory and pearls would be the things for me
But all that I don’t want to keep
You promised your love would always be there for me; you’re here with me
I wouldn’t ever need to cry
Cry x3
