Why can't we be in the same room smiling.
why can't we reach out to get one another
I flip my coins until they reach the outcome that i want
just one less gap would send me into your arms
one more ride I need to get there though
to far to walk to short to not try
I stumble back and forth
but its okay one day we will meet up
and our worlds will collide
and our happiness will rise like a tide
sweep me away let me sleep
you are all my dreams.

a girl, who lived in a different world than me, but we both cared for each and everything got in the way
