Crash and (NOT) Burn

The past few days has made me dig out my aged and dusty songbook. Been scribbling again. Throwing it all out on paper. Another shot at a self-therapy method. I should sharpen my guitar skills, and MAYBE start recording some nonsense. Hah. Well, just a thought...

Very much inspired by Colbie Caillat...
Kinda in tune with this particular piece...

Begin Again by Colbie Caillat
Written by Colbie Caillat
Album: Break Through
Track: 2

Lyrics :

i can't get you out of the sunlight
i can't get you out of the rain
i can't get you back to that one time
cos you and me are still recovering

so lets just, try to cool it down
the fighting, this feeling of flames
so lets try to slow it down
we crash when we race

oh this is not the way that it should end
it's the way it should begin
it's the way it should begin, again
no, i never wanna fall apart,
never wanna break your heart
never wanna let you break my own
yes, i know we've said alot of things
that we probably didn't mean
but it's not too late to take them back
so, before you say you're gonna go..
i should probably let you know
that i never knew what i had..
i never knew what i had..

see i look for you in the morning
cos that's where my mind always goes
and i can't wait to get to the evening
cos that's when i want you the most

so lets try to cool it down
the fighting, this feeling of flames
so lets try to slow it down
we crash when we race

oh this is not the way that it should end
it's the way it should begin
it's the way it should begin, again
no, i never wanna fall apart,
never wanna break your heart
never wanna let you break my own
yes, i know we've said alot of things
that we probably didn't mean
but it's not too late to take them back
so, before you say you're gonna go..
i should probably let you know
that i never knew what i had..
i never knew what i had..

but i know it now..
i wish i would've known before
how good we were..
or is it too late to come back
or is it's really over,
if it's really over..

but this is not the way that it should end
it's the way it should begin
it's the way it should begin, again
no, i never wanna fall apart,
never wanna break your heart
never wanna let you break my own
yes, i know we've said alot of things
that we probably didn't mean
but it's not too late to take them back
so, before you say you're gonna go..
i should probably let you know
that i never knew what i had..
i never knew what i had..

i never knew what i had..
i never knew what i had..
i never knew what i had..

Maybe I can never escape a messy & destructive relationship.
Like, when it's not, I'm in doubt.
Always expecting it to crash and burn.
Let's not.
