Dreamer, just another lover girl
Never asks hard questions
Never has concerns
Dreamer, just another lover girl
I never second-guessed us
I don't think that's absurd
Pictures never quite caught that look in our eyes
My friends, they just told me we both looked more alive
I swore I'd never climb high enough to get stuck on cloud nine
Guess the smart part of my brain stopped listening this time
Is it wishful thinking
To stop and ask hey is this love
The air tonight is sparkling
Our faces pink and flushed
It's not wishful thinking
Just watch the city lights burn orange for us
Our effervescent smiles
Are just bright enough
To make sense of all we speak of
Fevers, rushing with a red hot heart's desire
This new hope burns all evening
As we turn past ash to fire
Fevers, rushing with a red hot heart's desire
Our fate, adorned and gleaming
Not yet anticipating hurt
Pictures never quite caught that look in our eyes
My friends, they just told me we both looked more alive
I swore I'd never climb high enough to get stuck on cloud nine
Guess the smart part of my brain stopped listening this time
Is it wishful thinking
To stop and ask hey is this love
The air tonight is sparkling
Our faces pink and flushed
It's not wishful thinking
Just watch the city lights burn orange for us
Our effervescent smiles
Are just bright enough
To make sense of all we speak of
The risk that I'm willing to take is feeling
Look at the pain I write and paint, it's healing
My every memory like prose, it's revealing
I'll risk to love and to let go for this feeling
Is it wishful thinking
To stop and ask hey is this love
The air tonight is sparkling
Our faces pink and flushed
It's not wishful thinking
Just watch the city lights burn orange for us
Our effervescent smiles
Are just bright enough
To make sense of all we speak of
I'll keep this night in my locket
So it won't be forgotten (are we dreaming)
I'll leave a note in your pocket
So I won't be forgotten (wait, are you leaving)
