Stealing Time

I saw you standing underneath the streetlights With your hands in your

pockets and your eyes looking half asleep And I wondered if you

ever think about me

Or if I'm just another face you see I've got a hundred

things I'd like to tell you

But I can't even get a hello right

So I'll keep pretending that I'm somewhere else While secretly hoping you'll

look my way tonight And I know we haven't even started

But I've already written how it ends

Maybe I'm just falling for a feeling

Or maybe we could really be something

If you were mine,

we'd drive until the sunrise

Talk about our dreams underneath the pink skies You'd steal my jacket,

I'd steal your time

And everything would feel alright And maybe we'd be young and stupid

Laughing at things that nobody else finds funny

I don't need a perfect love story

Just someone who wants to know me

Sometimes I wonder what your voice sounds like When you're not surrounded

by everyone

If you're the kind who stays up talking

Or falls asleep before the night is done Would you remember my

favourite song?

Would you notice when something feels wrong?

Would we be friends before anything else?

Would you like me for just being myself?

And I know I'm getting ahead of myself Building castles out of

things I haven't felt

But there's a little hope I can't ignore

That maybe you'll be something more

If you were mine,

we'd drive until the sunrise

Talk about our dreams underneath the pink skies You'd steal my jacket,

I'd steal your time

And everything would feel alright And maybe we'd be young and stupid

Laughing at things that nobody else finds funny

I don't need a perfect love story

Just someone who wants to know me

And if we never become anything

I hope you find the happiness you need

But sometimes when the world gets quiet

I imagine you sitting next to me

And maybe in another lifetime

We don't have to wonder what could be

Maybe you would turn and look at me And I'd finally have

the courage to speak

If you were mine,

we'd watch the stars fall

Make little promises we'd try to keep them all And I'd know

your heart like you know mine And we'd never have to question

the time But until then I'll keep on dreaming

Of a love that feels like finally breathing

I don't need a perfect love story

Just someone who wants to know me

Maybe someday, maybe tonight Maybe our paths will cross at the

right time And if you

ever

wonder what I

see It's all the

things you haven't shown me

yet
