Song Lyrics~ Just Foolish by Me (2009)
It is foolish – but yes, I wonder if
in an alternate reality, I had the strength
to get over you and move on
And the next time I’d see you
You’d see me walking hand in hand
with another man looking at me
the way I wished you were looking at me
::CHORUS…
And would it hurt you to know
that I’ve managed to get along
just fine without you
would it just burn to know
while I’m making love to him
I’m not thinking of how
it would like
to be like this with you
Because all I’m thinking about
is him and not you
You would see the glint of the jewel
in my wedding ring — and you would see
how much this man loves me
would that cause you pain
would you regret ever letting me go
tell me would it just kill you
to watch me looking at him, loving him
the way you always wanted me to
::CHORUS…
And would it hurt you to know
that I’ve managed to get along
just fine without you
would it just burn to know
while I’m making love to him
I’m not thinking of how
it would like
to be like this with you
Because all I’m thinking about
is him and not you
::BRIDGE::
But it’s just all the same
Because I know that
if I was sharing my body
with another man
I’d be thinking of you
And I guess it’s just foolish
to think of things that will never happen
::CHORUS…
But would it hurt you to know
that I’ve managed to get along
just fine without you
would it just burn to know
while I’m making love to him
I’m not thinking of how
it would like
to be like this with you
Because all I’m thinking about
is him and not you
But there’s not sense in denying it
No sense in lying about it
Because I’m too deep, too consumed
And he’d always be second best
to you, he’d always be second best
And I couldn’t look at him
knowing how I feel about you
so it’s just foolish…
just foolish…

Song Lyrics~ Did You Know by me (2009)
Sometimes the days slide into night
and I miss the transition from light to dark
Until the moon hanging in the sky
Catches my notice in the corner of my eye
::Chorus…
Did you know that my heart
still waits in anticipation
for my eyes to absorb the sight
of your face? For the light in your eyes
to catch fire? Just to know you’re alive,
just to know you’re breathing
And my breath would catch in my throat
and I’d feel once again alive
I’ve heard it all before
Been here standing at the edge
of this abyss, feels like standing
at the tip of the sword
one slip could cost me so much
but I’m still standing here
waiting for you to come rescue me
from this place I find myself
::Chorus…
Did you know that my heart
still waits in anticipation
for my eyes to absorb the sight
of your face? For the light in your eyes
to catch fire? Just to know you’re alive,
just to know you’re breathing
And my breath would catch in my throat
and I’d feel once again alive
::Bridge::
It’s getting harder to breathe
every single day, knowing you are so far away
and it is getting heavier in my chest
and my legs are growing weak
from carrying this on my back for so long
all the while, you’re so far away
::Chorus…
Did you know that my heart
still waits in anticipation
for my eyes to absorb the sight
of your face? For the light in your eyes
to catch fire? Just to know you’re alive,
just to know you’re breathing
And my breath would catch in my throat
and I’d feel once again alive
Sometimes the days slide into night
and I miss the transition from light to dark
Until the moon hanging in the sky
Catches my notice in the corner of my eye
but I will wait, I will wait
standing at the tip of the sword
waiting for your next move
