Dedicated to Thomas

I was wonderstruck, unaware when the thunderstruck

Silly little girl fell for the boy who cried love

You only want me because I’m here waiting

Resting from testing the waters with girls more exciting

My eyes were wide shut ignoring your need to grow-up

I swear that I’ve had enough, but I can’t give up

You used to shine like fire but now darker than a scary tale

All your words filling up your hollow shell

Oh Thomas, you’ve anchored your ways

We’ve abandoned ship on this silent sea

A fading love sailing away with the ocean waves

Oh Thomas, we couldn’t stay afloat

With efforts drowning in our throats

I’ll reach the shore, one day, I’m almost sure

I’ll reach the shore, one day, I’m almost sure

I’m almost sure

I’m your guiltless basilisk, adored you till I was sick

Silly little girl was a sucker for charmers

You’re a wild thing I thought I could tame

An immature rebel going sweet in and out of days

Through my dreams I see a frolicking beast

Romancing every girl as if love were a feast

You used to warm my heart but now colder than a winter’s breeze

Coming and going anytime you please

Oh Thomas, you’ve anchored your ways

We’ve abandoned ship on this silent sea

A fading love sailing away with the ocean waves

Oh Thomas, you have me deep

Have me thinking of you before I sleep

Oh Thomas, we couldn’t stay afloat,

With efforts drowning in our throats

I’ll reach the shore, one day, I’m almost sure

I’m almost sure

With you all I did was believe

So headfirst I took a dive

Never thinking I’d need to revive

Over Thomas who made me feel so alive

I was a naïve young woman waiting for a boy

Who took the hopes of her heart and played coy

So I jumped ship before it was me that you would destroy

Now I look at the night sky lost in the sea and think

Oh Thomas, you’re breaking my heart

Oh Thomas, I’m falling apart

Oh Thomas, I don’t know who you are

Oh Thomas, I loved you from the start

Oh Thomas, you were my star

Maybe that star will guide me back to the shore one day

I’m almost sure, I’m almost sure

Oh Thomas, you’ve anchored your ways

So I’ve gone sailing for better days

A withered love sunk down to the bottom of the big blue sea

Oh Thomas, I sent you a four-page message in a bottle

Took too long to respond, ended my one-way battle

Oh Thomas, we couldn’t stay afloat

With efforts drowning in our throats

When I reach the shore I’ll be gone

Once you see I’m the one

I’ll reach the shore, one day, I’m almost sure

I’ll reach the shore, one day, I’m almost sure

I’m almost sure.
