new memories

I've had a lot of heartache; a lot of memories I would much rather forget,
I don't want to be alone anymore, so I've made the desicion to move on from the past.
I've been craving happiness for the longest time and my soul needs a place to call home,
though the pain still strikes me down and the darkness yearns to poison my mind.

Through the struggle between my heart and my head; with you the pressure melts away,
when you hold me so close I catch myself wishing that you'll never let me go.
Heaven must be right here with you for I have already endured a living hell before,
I've been searching for traces of who I was, but I've found someone better in you.

You've put my mind completely at ease just by being here; your smile has diluted my tears,
every second of the day is effortlessly spent up thinking about you; I don't mind.
Why can't we just stay this way, forever caught up in our loving embrace?
I can't believe that this is not just a dream, reality seems a thousand miles away.

I'm so caught up in you, tripping over my words and laughing at my own jokes,
but you don't seem to mind, you tell me that I'm beautiful even though I know it's not true.
My heart jumps all over the place just imagining your gorgeous face,
but still I can't help but to hold onto my past; he's cut a hole in my spirit.

You've set my pain free; I know now I'm ready to create some new memories...
