You were none,
And now you're all;
Your worth will rise,
The more I fall
And now you're all;
Your worth will rise,
The more I fall

“Love looks pretty on you. Makes you soft, tender, proud.
Makes you sit up and take notice. Gives you a home to set
down your things.
What a blessing it is, to have music and dancing and poetry.
What a gift it is, to look at someone and say,
I’m so happy to have found you—at last, at last, at long, long
last—you’re here.”

There are things I miss

and those I don't
that I should.
Sometimes we want
what we couldn't—
sometimes we love
who we could.”

“I drew him in my world;
I write him in my lines,
I want to be his girl,
he was never meant as mine.
I drew him in my world;
He is always on my mind;
I draw his every line.
It hurts when he's unkind.
I drew him in my world;
I draw him all the time,
but I don't know where to draw the line.”
