I don’t care if I romanticise it all in my head
Imagine you speaking to me in a certain way
Looking at me like I was the best thing that ever happened to you
Romanticism is almost as good as reality
Actually it’s probably better
(You don’t need a therapist to tell you that excitement fades after a year)
So even if I can’t bring myself to tell you
And I act like we’re just friends
Even though I wonder if you may like me too
(Because I always see this flicker in your face each time we meet)
Well I’m going to leave it now
And instead take joy in the most beautiful stories I create in my mind
Wondering if one day, one day
they might come true
