For An Instant

I continued living and closed my eyes
While, for an instant, you made me forget myself
The hows, the whens, the whys

Now I'm standing here in the past
It happens even when you move on
Though I could have moved on more fast

Before there was any damage done
That the choices I didn't make could cause
In the end the only choice I made was the one to be alone

A Girl Who Dreams

The dreams I didn't think I had
Keep me awake at night
Whisper to me every break of day
That darkness will always become light

Of purity and hope they talk
Of vanishing of unbroken pains
They promise there will come a day
When nothing but joy remains

That I can be new and different
And better than last year
If I'm repented from my faults and sins
If I've lived and learned, they swear

I should trust and rely on love
Kill my own heart's winter, break my fall
Be a light in this forsaken world
With my smile bring spring and summer to all

I wonder if dreams can bring promises
Keep heart and soul safe and sound
Guide, nurture and help us survive
When love is nowhere to be found

Dreams may not answer our questions
Maybe they just softly take us where
Reality can be a nicer place
A heaven on earth right here

I wish my dreams always will heal me
When there is nothing left to do
Every time hope abandons me to bleed to death
Beside my illusions made of every You

But you will probably never find out about it
For you nothing will ever be as it seems
The only thing you will know for sure
Is that I'm a girl who dreams

Open Eyes

Who am I
To want to see Love
Through something else
Than the eyes of others

Not have to
Borrow these feelings
That aren't mine
That aren't ours

Turn my life around
Make me Someone else
Someone I'll always be
Make me yours

Wake me from this life
Let me dream awake
Live my life with open eyes
Open heart and open arms

But who am I
To want to see Love
Through something else
Than the eyes of others

Yours To Keep

Always in the middle
Of a half remembered dream
A different shade of the same

Too afraid to love
Too afraid to mess up
Of waiting to die alone
Or dream about the feeling

There's really nothing to say
I'm here to wake up
Become yours to keep

Empty Lines

Empty lines
Can't be questioned
By any chance or heart

Empty lines
Abandon me in the middle of the night
Leaving the door open

Empty lines
Everything you never say
Are a part of my dreams

Empty lines
Don't mean anything
But I understand

Empty lines
Loose me and find me
Imagine me without them

You don't know it
But you break my waves
With your empty lines

The Love That Everybody Seeks

Maybe I can't make you love me
But I promise to always be there
And encourage you softly
If you wouldn't dare

Ask me to take your hand
Be yours for ever more
Tell me with a kiss
That it's me that you adore

Come with me
Don't be afraid
You and me together
Have a future to be made

The Love that everybody seeks
May it be ours if only for one day
To be shared with only each other
And if you then would go away

May you guard me in your heart
If I never would see you again
Let me become a secret part of you
And may we re-encounter if and when

Our hearts have been growing
And are ready to really love
In a pure and honest way
That only comes from above

We will realise how much we love each other
How much we are in need
Of being together and really try
To create something good and succeed

Though sleep may flee our eyes
May our hearts ever find rest
As one entire soul
Forever united and blessed

With no secrets for each other
And every history forgiven
So we both can enjoy a common future
Where Celestial Love is given

Impossible Love Story

Even though you're so far away
I can hear you breathing
As if the distance is far away from us

Where I long to have you with me
I'm all alone
With your absence

Waiting outside your life
For a chance to survive
Without touching you

When my sun is feeling weak
The thought of you
Still makes my heart beat

So many days that never ended
And nights that never lasted
I'm sorry I needed you

After loving you
There is no strength in my heart
Left to want you

Over and over again
You become my Way
To view this world

I'm trying to forget you
Change you for somebody else
But you always break my silence

You're my impossible love story
Come closest to me
And don't ever end
