Array ( [sid] => 143768 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Butterflies [time] => 2008-07-08 15:30:58 [hometext] => different from my usual stuff i know, im not sure how much i like this one... any feedback would be very much appreciated!! [bodytext] => Every night you’re the star of my dreams
I’m not quite sure what that means
It can’t be love, that just wouldn’t do
You’ve already found the one for you, so

How come I can’t get you off of my mind?
How come I get butterflies everytime I see your perfect crooked smile?
Please at least look my way just once
Just look at me, look at me, before these butterflies fly me away

I can hardly control my thoughts when I’m awake
I see you and her happy together
And I know that I’m not better
I want to close my eyes and shut out the world
But then all I can see is you
What can I do?

How come I can’t get you off my mind?
How come I get butterflies everytime I see your perfect crooked smile?
Please at least look my way just once
Just look at me, look at me, before these butterflies fly me away

The safest bet is to stare at the wall; try my hardest not to think
And especially not to blink
But I can’t control my dreams in which you’re always the star
You are my star
I wish I was your sky
So you’d finally look at me and watch me fly

This makes me sad.
Whoever this is inspired by must be some guy. ;D
