I Swear This Time I Mean It

Recently I've been returning back to my basics musicaly speaking. I don't know if that even makes sense but it's true.
And I like it.
So today I'm going to write the lyrics to one of my all time favourite songs. It's pretty old but so good.

Oh, Florida, please be still tonight

Don't disturb this love of mine

Look how she's so serene, you've gotta help me out...

And count the stars to form the lines

And find the words we'll sing in time

I want to ker her dreaming

It's my one wish, I won't forget this

I'm outdated, overrated

Morning seems so far away

So I'll sing a melody

And hope to God she's listening

Sleeping softly while I sing

And I'll be your memories,

Your lullaby for all the times

Hoping that my voice could get it right

If luck is on my side tonight,

My clumsy tongue will make it right

And wrists that touch

It isn't much, but it's enough

To form imaginary lines

Forget your scars, we'll forget mine

The hours change so fast,

Oh God, please make this last...

'Cause I outdated, overrated

Morning seems so far away

So I'll sing a melody

And hope to God she's listening

Sleeping softly while I sing

And I'll be your memories,

Your lullaby for all the times

Hoping that my voice could get it right,

Could get it right...

You could crush me

Please, don't crush me

'Cause baby, I'm a dreamer for sure

And I won't let you down

I swear this time I mean it...

And I'll sing a melody

And hope to God she's listening

Sleeping softly while I sing

And I'll be your memories,

Your lullaby for all the times

Hoping that my voice could get it right...
