Mellow Songs Right Now

Paintings In My Mind

Picture this, you and me

walking down a white sand beach

We're holding hands, the warm winds blow

We're all alone

All these dreams are fantasies

they're not real, not reality

And now I cry over you, nearly die over you

and all the bits and pieces of us that I try to find

Chorus:

are only paintings in my mind

Faded memories

of another place and time

We were happy as can be

You were loving me

And now it's just an image that I find

like the paintings in my mind

When you left I fell apart

I was torn, you broke my heart

And now I cry over you, nearly die over you

And all the bits and pieces of us that I try to find

(exists as paintings in my mind)

chorus

Impressions of the way it was

Long ago, somewhere back in time

Just Before

(I Was Gonna Say I Love You)

And I recall the night

when my heart was shattered in two

It took me so long

to find my thoughts, express it to you

I'd waited all my life

thinking love would never come my way

Then right before my eyes

you killed my dreams with what you had to say

And it took me some time to find the words

but I didn't get the chance to be heard,

You told me

Chorus:

Just before I was about to say that I need you

Just before I was about to show my heart was true

You said that you were seeing another love

Someone you'd been dreaming of

All this time I never knew

You told me

just before, just before, just before

I was gonna say I love you

All in one moment

I lost visions of heaven to be

I said to myself

I was happier being lonely

'Cause love is the most pain I've ever felt

My heart is aching and my soul just melts

chorus

And it took me some time to find the words

but I didn't get the chance to be heard,

You told me
