Verse 1:
They ask me, "Are you seeing someone new?"
I tell them, "It's complicated, it's true."
Seven years, we've danced this strange ballet,
A love that lingers, yet it slips away.
He's everything I ever dreamed he'd be,
A perfect picture, just out of reach for me.
Obsessed, I'll say it, heart on my sleeve,
Waiting for a love he can't quite give.
Verse 2:
They ask, "When will the church bells chime?"
I just shrug, a ghost of a love in my mind.
Two years I've wandered, lost in his haze,
Haunted by the memory of his loving gaze.
Unwilling to move on, trapped in his spell,
Consumed by a love I know so well.
Still am...
Verse 3:
September nights, a text I sent,
A whispered hello, a message heaven-sent.
We talked and laughed, a spark remained,
A fragile connection, though love restrained.
Once a month we'd meet, a stolen embrace,
A fleeting moment, in time and space.
December's warmth, his touch so near,
A memory cherished, year after year.
Pre-Chorus:
The phone is ringing, my heart's in my throat,
A conversation coming, a truth to be spoke.
Seven years of history, hanging in the air,
A future uncertain, a love I still bear.
Chorus:
Seven years, a ghost, a dream,
Stuck in this love, it would seem.
He comes and goes, a fleeting touch,
Leaving me wanting, oh so much.
But now there's you, a love so new,
A tiny heartbeat, me and you.
Will he stay, will he go?
Only time will truly know.
Verse 4:
February's chill, a truth revealed,
A tiny heartbeat, a love concealed.
Conceived in love, or so it seemed,
A fragile hope, a waking dream.
But shadows linger, a memory's sting,
Seven years ago, the same sad thing.
A fear I carry, a love so dear,
Will history repeat, is the end so near?
Bridge:
I'm stronger now, than I used to be,
A mother's love, sets my spirit free.
If he walks away, I'll be okay,
My baby's love, lights up the way.
But oh, I hope, he'll understand,
The love we share, hand in hand.
A family's dream, a chance to grow,
Together or apart, my love will flow.
Chorus:
Seven years, a ghost, a dream,
Stuck in this love, it would seem.
He comes and goes, a fleeting touch,
Leaving me wanting, oh so much.
But now there's you, a love so new,
A tiny heartbeat, me and you.
Will he stay, will he go?
Only time will truly know.
Outro:
Where do we go from here, the path unknown,
But one thing's certain, my baby is here.
A precious gift, a love so new,
A strength I find, to see it through.
Will love prevail, will fear subside?
I hold on tight, to this precious tide.
[Bridge]
He wants a wedding, a ring on my hand,
A traditional start, a life he's planned.
But fear takes hold, a voice in my ear,
Whispers of loneliness, year after year.
I long for connection, a family's embrace,
Afraid to face this world, alone in this place.
So I choose him, though doubts still remain,
Hoping love will conquer, and ease the pain.
[Chorus]
Seven years, a ghost, a dream,
Stuck in this love, it would seem.
He comes and goes, a fleeting touch,
Leaving me wanting, oh so much.
But now there's you, a love so new,
A tiny heartbeat, me and you.
Will he stay, will he go?
Only time will truly know.
[Outro]
Where do we go from here, the path we've made,
Together we'll journey, though shadows may fade.
A precious gift, a love so new,
A family's dream, me and you.
Will love prevail, will fear subside?
Only time will tell, as we walk side by side.
I hold on tight, to this fragile thread,
Hoping love will lead us, wherever it's led.
