I could have let you walk on by.
I could have let you say goodbye.
But you're so damn beautiful,
I just dazed for a while-
Lost inside my mind...
and all you did was smile.
I can be the starving artist,
you can be my muse.
We'll paint a bright impression
of this culture we abuse.
You can be the brooding writer,
I can fill your passion.
We'll hold on to the browning pages
like they're still in fashion.
I almost let you walk on by
I almost let you say goodbye.
But you're so damn beautiful,
Maybe you'd stay for a while-
and let your hair down...
and turn my life around.

thank you for entering the contest. If my comment is sparse, it's just that I have 165 entries and it's hard to make a decent comment to everyone.
