Like a river she flows down to the ocean
Gently she moves through the stones that made her bed
Apart from the sun and the moon and the stars
Only the wind ever listened to the words that she said
When she was alone in her heart, in her head
And the lovers danced happily on her welcoming banks
And no one ever saw all the tears that she shed
For they were heavy with pain, in the river they sank
And she glimmers in the sun, shines in the moonlight
She remembers all the nights that she spent
Dreaming a distant dream, she flows away like a melody
Unto her destiny, she finally descends
'Cause sometimes she wonders as she nears her end
What it is like to be beautiful to somebody
She's loved many a souls and made many a friends
But what does it feel like to be loved by somebody— % &-
Raised in a garden of marigolds
And by the melody of the Himalayan winds
I learnt to dream of the impossible
Open fields and roads lined with eucalyptus
Were my escape, till they weren't anymore
As the eucalyptus were cut down and the winds grew warmer
A dream of a foreign world was dreamt
In the closed corridors and among the orange marigolds
In the romanticism of exploring the unknown
Lied the fantasies of the impossible
And then the marigolds were replaced
By a flower never seen before
But not everything grows in chilly Himalayan winds
And countless dreams were shattered
As the marigolds slowly withered away
The flowers may die but the scent remains
And the lover leaves his traces behind
But one could cling on to the imagination for how long
And how long would the scent linger
In the corridors where the winds don't visit anymore
And as the melody becomes distant with time
How long till I forget the sound of his voice
And the music in the footsteps as he danced in the corridors
To the songs that were never heard
By anyone but me...
-
You were the calm of a blue sea
With storms inside, I couldn't see
I should've realised with the first sign
You try to be someone, you shouldn't be...
You said you would die for me
But you're just selling lies to me
I've known it since last December
You were waiting to say goodbye to me...
What is stopping you now,
From disrupting the peace
Don't act clueless now,
You are not that difficult to read
I've been seeing through your lies, throughout our lives
Kill me first, but please don't die on me...-
She smiles at the raindrops falling on the window pane
They keep her company, for when she's alone...
She reaches out to the horizon that calls her name
But birds don't fly, when their wings are gone...-
Clock strikes 12, as the new month began
Brown leaves falling, as the autumn wind sang
I met you somewhere near the foothills? Do you remember?
With a smile brighter than the Sun, behind your back...
But as we came closer, the happy days left
I was happy I fell in love, but sad that we met
We were a lost cause from the first day of September
I know I should've listened to the voice in my head.
And when the day finally came
I knew in my heart you always felt the same
We weren't meant to be, atleast not in this life
But keep me in your heart, and remember my name...
Hearts connected with a string of fate
Vision blurred in the winter haze
It's not just a goodbye for today
We realise as we part our ways...
I blame it on the day I saw you
I blame it on the time of the day
I can deny all I want, what we were
But it's true, we were a mistake...
Clock winds back to the day we met
But our feet keep on moving ahead
Golden rays falling freely on my face
My shadow, dark, eclipsing your back...-
I'll reach out my hand to catch these falling snowflakes...
They won't melt against my cold hands...
The snow will be sticking to the ground, as the leaves turn brown...
I'll know when the winter comes with its warm embrace...
-
The wind knows
As I sing my song
It carries these notes to you...
I hope it's fine
And you don't mind
If I fall in love with you...
The wind knows
When I'm alone
It carries my heart to you...
You are not mine
But I hope it's fine
If I fall in love with you...-
There are times when I really wanna cry
But there are things that stop me sometimes
My friends in my heart, somewhere in my mind
In the piles of my canvas, but never in my life...
I lost real friends in the path of life
But I gained the love of those I would never call mine
Save me, save me, but I always say I'm fine
The real was fake, that's what I've realised...
I've hit the lowest low, when I came down from the high
Every friendship forged was nothing but a lie
Between the pages of these books, is now where I keep my life
I'll only ever cry, for the friends in my mind...-
We're the opposite ends of the magnet
We attract each other like the poles
He held the red, and I held the blue end
Of the purple bond of our souls...
He likes summers, and I like winters
With legs tangled under the sheets
I often forget to put sugar in mine
But he likes his coffee sweet...
He's like the Sun in the morning sky
I'm the Moon of the lonely nights
But our hearts beat as one, like no other
When we're dancing under the streetlights...-
If my reality wasn't real
I'd be stealing your sweaters
To keep me warm in these winters
In the middle of summers
I wish the world in my head
Could come to life
It would have been easier to stay alive
Wouldn't really have to try
With you by my side...-
