Lover's Dream Lyrics

They said "don't make him more special than he is"

But I'm still writing you into my love stories

Trying to be that manic pixie dream

That you wanted me to be

Made a flower crown out of your red flags

Thought that I would look better in this fallen kingdom

Brick by brick I built from my heart to you

That you torn apart and broke in two

While you smiled and said

"You won't be alone"

Had I broken my own heart?

Even if you're the one to part

Had I fallen for someone

That never existed at all?

I was holding you close

Like a bottled up rose

I was living a lover's dream

Baby you had loved the way you held me captive

Knowing you had me under your spell

Such a shame, that when I called to you three times

I'm the only one here when the bell chimes

Such a shame

I never could call you mine

Had I broken my own heart?

Even if you're the one to part

Had I fallen for someone

That never existed at all?

I was holding you close

Like a bottled up rose

I was living a lover's dream

Swear I didn't care if you heard this

But I'm still on my own, hoping it hits home

Now I'm just another name on your list

The next story with a twist

Had I broken my own heart

Even if you're the one to part

All the signs were there

Even if I was too desperate to care

Guess I fell for someone

That never existed at all

No he never existed at all

No he never existed

I was holding you close

Like a wilting rose

I was living a lover's dream
