Missed the Date..

a song I wrote on the bus home one day...it's a bit hard to follow but I'm really proud of it. Enjoy! :)


woke up late, missed the date
barely caught the bus on time
walked too fast, when faces crashed
my eyes, looked up and saw you
the second passed, I brushed off the grass
returned to running mindlessly
I was too late, I missed the date.
And stood the entire class

(chorus) Cause you are..
the one who holds my mind in place
and you are..
the person once I saw your face, I knew
I could love you.

The teacher talked, or so I thought
I was having trouble listening
thoughts of you, your eyes of blue
It wasn't like they said.
We didn't run away to love..
the sky, no bluer, still stood above.
The day went great, I missed the date..
cause I was slowly stuck in time.

I find myself running minutes late
to maybe see your face again
no luck, no fate, I'm just too late
it wasn't meant to be.

(chorus) Cause you are..
the one who hold my mind in place
and you were...
the person once I saw your face, I knew
I could love you.

Perhaps I lost the point to the
speech I missed that day
and looking back, just as I'l thought
the questions slipped away
Mr. Greene had said to me "Always be on time"..
for minutes lost aren't worth the thought,
only future..
is worth your time.

(chorus) Cause you are..
the one who holds my mind in place.
and you were..
the person once I saw your face, I knew

that I loved you.
