Favorite Quote:
Scenery is nothing more than poetry.
Love is nothing more than chemicals.
'Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.
One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.


You say you gotta go,
Baby, I gotta let you know.
I've been hooked on you,
Ever since my very first view.
I'm aware that you've got a guy,
Yet I'm still trying for you and I don't know why.
I don't want you to leave,
You'll fade away just like a dream.
So is there any possible way,
That I can make you stay?
'Cause for you, I'm willing to show you how far I'll go,
So girl, you gotta let me know:
Can I change your mind?
Let me know before I run out of time.
'Cause I'll do anything to keep you around,
When I heard the news you were leaving, it brought me down.
There has to be a way to make you stay,
I can't go without seeing your face every day.
You invade my mind twenty-four seven,
I wish that you'll be mine every night at eleven eleven.
I have to change your mind, someway, somehow,
I'm beginning to run out of time starting now...
I know your favorite color, all the ways to make you smile,
Could you take a breath and stay with me for a while?
One day together, I'm sure that's all I need,
That's plenty of time to explain why I don't want you to leave.
I sound obsessed, no need to say it twice,
But if it convinces you to stay, then I'll gladly pay the price.
You could be so much more, let me tell you,
I know you'll go far even though you say it's not true.
What's with the sad look on such a beautiful face?
That depressing expression you need to erase.
I'm willing to show you how far I'll go,
So girl, you gotta let me know:
Can I change your mind?
Let me know before I run out of time.
'Cause I'll do anything to keep you around,
When I heard the news you were leaving, it brought me down.
There has to be a way to make you stay,
I can't go without seeing your face every day.
You invade my mind twenty-four seven,
I wish that you'll be mine every night at eleven eleven.
I have to change your mind, someway, somehow,
I'm beginning to run out of time starting now...
I show up for school but you're not here,
Suddenly reality becomes my biggest fear.
I feel my eyes drip a tear,
So much for keeping you near.
I'm getting this feeling, it's a bit queer,
I visualize you inside my head and you appear.
I feel you slowly slipping to my brain's rear,
As I blink, you disappear...
I couldn't change your mind,
I already ran out of time.
I would have done anything to have kept you around,
Now you're gone and I'm completely breaking down.
There wasn't a way to make you stay,
I now have to live without seeing your face every day.
Still you invade my mind twenty-four seven,
I'm still wishing hard you'll be mine every night at eleven eleven.
There wasn't a way to change your mind, not someway, not somehow,
And I just ran out of time to convince you, right now...
