Post 955: Apartment 227 (10/13/23)

Apartment 227 (10/13/23)

Thinking back on all of love's misses
There's someone's kisses
Who's memory illudes* me
But that still doesn't keep them from finding a way
On some idle day

 (Everything you wanted love to be
You could have had in me (had in me)
Every single dream outside eternity
In apartment 227, 227
The closest to heaven i'll ever see
Was when you were there with me
In apartment 227, 227)

Things don't always go as you planned
For me, you would still hold my hand
But all i have is the illusion
Of loves strange confusion
Romanticized remnants of something i wanted to be
But never was meant for me

(chorus)

We flew too close to the sun
i thought you were the one
The only person i would ever, i would ever need
But now all you are, 
Is a faded dream (faded dream)

(chorus)

If life ever seems too rough, and you've had more than enough
You can always think of me
And what will never be
i'll  be waiting, waiting in your memory
In apartment 227
i'll always be in apartment 227

*Meant to say "eludes", but strangely, illudes works as well.
