Believe

I'm seeing your face in my head again all of a sudden Nostalgia of meeting you as a child & barely budding Into the decades of pen-pals we've become I never bragged - I stayed humble - 'cause I knew with you I'd won I remember chatting with you when I couldn't even spell And again & again I'd come running to you, with my California Hell Big little girl tears fell from my face Home to you I'd run, like I was running in a race I didn't have an invisible friend - but I DID have a faceless username Puddles & puddles & puddles of tears welled up in tiny puddles on that desk for years Along with smiles, virtual kisses & hugs As long as I had you - I was a bug snug in a rug Years & years & decades on - that spark was becoming incredibly strong for two people across the world who increasingly felt that they didn't belong (If we gave it a fair shot this time) I guarantee together we'd make the HARDEST dubstep song Seven years later - show me what you're made of! Open my eyes to something the first time around I missed Show me like the first time, our friendship's worth THIS And let me convince you this time what in you the first time I saw Upgrade & renew the first hand of cards we drew And let me show you why you'll ALWAYS be important to me But this time all I ask is for you to BELIEVE This time open up to me Introvert was first - this time we aim for extrovert And next time when it's rocky - this time don't desert...
