I stood by the exit door of the hotel cafe, he was playing with his band.
I've always been a sucker, had a weakness for a boy with a guitar and a drink in
his hand. His words were like heaven in my hurricane, my knees buckled under, I thought everyone was watching me.
Watching you save my life with the song.
You were mine, in the back of my mind.
Oh, just for one night; just for a while.
I'm not a victim of cliches: I don't believe in soul mates, happy endings, or "the one."
Oh, and I met you and all that changed - I had a taste and you're still sitting on the tip of my tongue.
You were mine, somewhere in time. I'll look for you first in my next life.
I really think I'm ready to fall in love again.
It's not about finding someone who's right for me, but also who I'm right for. I need someone who can put up with everything that goes on in my life.
Someone who realizes I can't be perfect twenty four hours of each and every day.
Someone who knows that occasionally I will break down. Sometimes I cry, sometimes I lose control. What I need is someone to bring me back to life. I don't need a Superman. I need a man who will save me at those moments, and laugh at them with me later.
I need deep conversations, and obscene jokes.
I want someone who can put up with my mouth and won't tell me that I should stop smoking. I need someone who thinks I make sense. Someone who will let me continue talking about nonsense, and tell me it's cute or that they understand afterward.
I want someone who can really listen to the things that I don't say.
If you really honestly think you can do it, I want to know.
If you can handle a girl who is confident through the day, and unravels into insecure when she steps through her bedroom door.
I want to know if you think you're strong enough to handle me. So tell me.
