A Misunderstanding


 
I was in love with you 
Closed my eyes and dipped myself backwards knowing the enemy laid beside me
I was in love with you 
And the way you talked about blue skies and how gravity tears us apart. 
I was in love with you
With the way you leaned over and kissed me just before green lights
Could shine so bright I swear your eyes sang tones that only angels could ever hope to reach
I was in love with the idea of love. 
But explain to me how I still dream about the look in your eyes when they looked at me 
I was in love with the you I convinced myself you were. 
I was in love with you.
My mistake that I thought you loved me too.
