if my heart was a house you'd be home
16 July 2009 @ 09:44 pm

i can see the look on your face
when you're taking one step forward and then another
i can see that there's something
about the lines on your face that makes me want to
ask if everything's all right?

i want to ask what would you do
if a ray of sunshine falls down right next to your pair of white sneakers
i want to ask what would you do
if the tree right next to you starts growing money
i'd like you to answer these questions
because curiosity is an enemy that i can't defeat
would you pick up the sunshine
put it in your pocket
keep it safe
or would you kick it aside
and watch it roll into the nearest ditch
i want to know if you'd pluck the money from the tree
and whether you'd spend it on something nice

i can see the look on your face
when you're taking one step backwards
i can see that you're retracing your steps
but i don't know why -- are you lost?
because i have a map
and it's pretty accurate; you could say
that i'm a professional when it comes to directions

but just in case you get lost again
i hope you kept that sunshine safe
because you'll need it to give you light
when it gets dark
especially when it gets dark.
