Got To Really Try

I’d like to just see that smile you have for me
Or maybe it’s not, but like a photograph
It contains good memories
It’s got me hoping for a future with more of the same
Maybe a connection even deeper than before
Without shattering the picture before it develops
We don’t know how it will end

The light breaks into a million pieces
I watch from my window in silence
Thinking I only make it what I want it to be
I ask myself why do I get caught in between
Now I’ve got to really try
To keep you in my life

I catch myself
I’m thinking it could be a great romance
Pessimism always creeps to my brain
How could this be
It’s not right for me if you can’t see

I write it all down from an ink pen
Get it out of my system, get me clean
I wake up the next day
It starts off black and white
Then my thoughts color it bright
This is my new life
It’s starting over again
Now I’ve got to really try
To keep you in my life
