My grandma told me once of the perfect man...and since nobody's perfect, I learned he exists only in your dreams.
-- Lisa Gilbert

Sad what we go through just for the chance to be loved...even sadder what we go through when we don't get that chance after wishing and hoping for it for so long.
-- Lisa Gilbert

I liked you because you could make me smile. I fell in love with you because you made me want to be a better person. Now that you're leaving me, what am I supposed to do?
-- Lisa Gilbert

Why is it that we torture ourselves with love? We hope and wish for that special someone for so long, and it hurts so much to see them love someone else. When we finally get the person of our dreams, they leave sooner or later, gone from your life like a feather floating away in the wind, never to be seen again. We cry endlessly for many nights, remembering their smiles, their kind words, their warm embrace. You can't help but feel joy when you think of their sweet kisses or that special feeling you get when you see them. You dream of them and wake up smiling, until to realize it was just a dream and the closest thing you have to that person are the memories and times you shared, that made it all worthwhile. I guess that's why we torture ourselves with love.

I'm smiling and laughing with all my friends, then I notice you. As my smile quickly fades, I wonder if you can really tell what I'm feeling. I wonder if deep down hidden beneath my smiles you can see my broken heart. I wonder if maybe you're feeling the same way. My thoughts are answered as I watch a tear slide down your cheek, and I feel your pain. I look away for a second, hoping our love isn't completely lost, as my own eyes blur with tears. I wipe my eyes quickly and return my gaze to you...And then our eyes meet once again...

I couldn't help it when I started to cry, I've told myself that life's a lie, ...You know love sucks when your dreams slip away. I'd trade all my tomorrows for one yesterday.
-- Lisa Gilbert

At night when I fall fast asleep, I dream of a dream that I can't keep. Because no matter how much I wish it were true, destiny will not let me be with you.
-- Lisa Gilbert

A night in your arms is all that I ask
A simple price; An easy task
Listen to my heart as I plead
Your touch is all that I need
-- Lisa Gilbert

Love makes the past unimportant, and the future brighter.
-- Lisa Gilbert

Just because I'm quiet, doesn't mean I have nothing to say
Just because I'm shy, doesn't mean there can't be a way
Just because I never let you know how I really feel,
doesn't mean that "us" is something unreal.
-- Lisa Gilbert

The loner may not speak to you, or glance your way. But if you speak to them, you may make their day.
--Lisa Gilbert

I never thought I could sing in the rain without a fear, I never thought I'd be lonely without you near, I never thought I could feel like someone new, I never thought about love, until I met you.
-- Lisa Gilbert

Have you ever heard a song from so long ago with so many memories tied to it that it made you cry? And didn't you wish that you could go back into time when everything seemed simple and carefree? Those are songs that are the soundtrack of our lives...the ones that bring back childhood memories, best friends, first love, first heartbreak...the memories.
-- Lisa Gilbert

These are my feelings, do you share them too?
These are my feelings, do they matter to you?

As the truth comes out
Your angel doesn't look so perfect anymore
If you would've only known about it before
Hopes and dreams suddenly fade
What will happen to the relationship you've made?
-- Lisa Gilbert

One day I'll be able to think of him without becoming sad. That day hasn't come yet.
-- Lisa Gilbert

You never quite realize how much you love and need him until the very moment you realize he's slipping away.
-- Lisa Gilbert

The heartbreak begins at the moment when you know he's not thinking of you like you are thinking of him.
The heartbreak grows when the tears form in your eyes.
The heartbreak takes over your mind when you see him once again.
You want to reach out and make it all better.
All you really want to do is hold him forever.
-- Lisa Gilbert

I'm being shunned for who I am
A terrible reputation haunting my soul
A part of me, without it I'm not whole
Maybe it's from the disorder of my brain
No matter what I do, these thoughts remain

I stood by you in times of doubt
Watched over you and kept you strong
Why couldn't you have stayed for me that long?
So here's my thoughts and they are true Choose friends that won't turn their back on you.

You're a stranger to me
Your ways are so cold
Why did you give up on me?
This game is so old

When the world around me falls apart
You keep me holding on
When my world comes crashing down
You keep me strong
You give me a reason to hold on
When everything else is going wrong
-- Lisa Gilbert

You know you've found someone special when they can lift your spirits simply with a smile.
-- Lisa Gilbert

The moonlight above lights my way
I don't care what others may say
My thoughts reveal the truth,
Whatever it may be
And only this night will bring you to me.
-- Lisa Gilbert

It's not that you're gone, because we're still friends
It's that I'm "alone" and "we" reached an end.
It's not that I'm mad, because you never did wrong,
It's that I feel like I love you, but I have to be strong.
There are so many words I left unspoken
Maybe that's why my heart is broken?
-- Lisa Gilbert

You broke my heart
I felt I could fall apart
You even made me cry
But I still love you
And there's a million reasons why

But why can't you see
My heart still wants more
Even after you walked out the door

I must throw caution to the wind
And now it's only you, can't you see
Who can fix this situation.

I've even cried these tears before
But to get you back, I'd go through so much more.

The words still pierce like a sword, They've been etched in my memory far too long, For the heart aches the most when one thought nothing was wrong.
-- Lisa Gilbert

Forget my sadness
Wipe away my tears
I can't let you know my fears
-- Lisa Gilbert
