Inside Out

Your friends told you to leave
Your mom told you to be strong
But you kept holding on 
To the love you always dreamed of
And never thought you would have
You're a dreamer at heart
Always holding on way too hard
You shouldn't have watched all of the films
or sang along to those songs
Because the song on the radio 
Is now the one in your heart
That stupid movie, the Notebook 
It's consuming all of your thoughts
And you're wishing and wishing

Life would turn out like it does in the movies

But you remember a song telling you 
To lift up your head, 
get a hold on your life
He isn't perfect, and you won't be his wife
And you remember where you heard it
But you know every closed door opens a window
So let go of him sweetie, 
He's not good for you
Let go of him darling
You're worrying enough for two
What you're doing right now 
isn't good for anyone anyway
And when he comes to your room
Like he does in your dreams
Instead of kissing him softly
Get ahold of your strength
Let him know where you stand 
and that you really believe

Life isn't like what you see in the movies

Someday you'll move on
And someday you'll grow
He'll be happy and you'll see
You were right to say no

Because life will be better than what you see in the movies

It hurts in here
It's lonely and it's hot
And it hurts in here
My heart is breaking 
My head is shaking
I'm trying to undo everything I just said
I'm trying to bring the living back from the dead
I have a thousand things to tell him 
And I want him to hear every one.
I love him and I'll love him
For the rest of my life
I love him and I'll love him
One chance, I'll be his wife
I just want you here 
To tell you about my day
I just want you here 
to kiss and hug and play
I want to hear your dumb jokes,
I want to make you dinner
I want you here because without you
Everything seems a little dimmer

I want to wish you happy birthday
I want to get down and a little dirty
Your present was all picked out
So why aren't you here to unwrap it?
And what I'm saying is not poetic
But it's an emotional plea
I can't hold it together, living logically
Because my head isn't working
And my ears aren't hearing
Anything but the Taylor Swift song
Singing I can't live without you, 
I can't live without you, Baby
So come back, please come back
In whatever form you want
Just be part of my life, 
Give me one more chance
Don't leave me in the dark
I can't live without you with this broken heart
