One Sweet Love by Sara Bareilles

Just about the time the shadows call,
I undress my mind and dare you to follow.
Paint a portrait of my mystery,
only close my eyes and you are here with me.
A nameless face to think I see
to sit and watch the waves with me, til they're gone.
A heart I swear I'd recognize is made out of my own devices
...could I be wrong?

Time that I've taken, I pray it's not wasted.
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?

Sleepless nights you creep inside of me,
paint your shadows on the breath that we share.
You take more than just my sanity--
you take myr eason not to care.
No ordinary wings I'll need--
the sky itself will carry me back to you.

The things I dream that I can do,
I'd open up the moon for you...
Just come down soon.

Time that I've taken..I pray it's not wasted.
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love....

Ready and waiting for a heart worth the breaking.
But I'd settle for an honest mistake in the name of one sweet love.

Weave your shadows in the breath that we share

Savor the sorrow to soften the pain,
sip on the southern rain, as I do,
I don't look, don't touch, don't do anything,
but hope that there is a you.

The earth that is the space between,
I'd banish it from under me, to get to you.
Your unexpected love provides my solitary suicide…
oh I wish I knew...

The time that I've taken,
I pray it's not wasted.
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?
Ready and waiting
for a heart worth the breaking..
But I'd settle for an honest mistake in the name of one sweet love.

I'm loving Sara Bareilles' album atm, many thanks to Vee for getting it for my birthday :) One Sweet Love is one of my favourite songs. Make sure you check out her album, 'Little Voice'. It's owrth a listen!

I'm supposed to be typing up a speech due on Friday for English Advanced. It's based on Change and I have to relate it to not only Othello but to 2 other texts. I'm majorly confused but I'll manage somehow. I'm ever so grateful my teachers have decided to make the students say it in front of both English Adv classes *rolls eyes*. No, really, a major upside is that there is now a 1 in 60 chance of getting chosen randomly from a hat!
