I Didn’t Mean For This To Happen

qwerty

i didn’t mean for this to happen.
in fact i really was trying to be cool
and perhaps a bit detached
you’d think i’d learn by now

and the words of the last mix
hint at my reality
I was supposed to be cool about this
yeah I remember cool was the plan
tried to keep it all under wraps
but the wraps kept going slack
I keep turning round
I keep coming back

damned if i could stop
what my heart was determined to discover
and maybe you are brave
but i was just scared

and yes i’ve stopped waiting
for the other shoe to drop
and i’m starting to accept
this isn’t some dream
waiting to burst upon waking
i’m not sure how we got to be so blessed
i just know we are

trust and i are not the closest of friends
but every day i find
that i am learning to trust this
trust you, trust you
trust me, trust love
trust family

i swear i didn’t mean for this to happen
but i am so glad it did
