I wanna know
Since you've been gone
Have I been on
Your mind?
'Cause I know I was for a while

Late last night
I saw you out
For a moment I
Turned to stone
'Cause there's still something only we see

Don't talk
I'd have run to kiss your mouth
Is it me or
Just a dream that never dies?

There's a reason why
I never returned your calls
I wish I could forget it all
But I never returned your calls
'Cause I'd fall in again

We're leaving here
We're on the run
The time has come
I don't hear no alarms
Fall asleep in my arms

A lover's game
Is never fair
But I still care
And I know you do too
'Cause there's a part of me that's you

Don't talk
I'd have run to kiss your mouth
Is it me or
Just a dream that never dies?

There's a reason why
I never returned your calls
I wish I could forget it all
But I never returned your calls
'Cause I'd fall in again

I still find parts of you
In the corners of my bedroom
Someday comes too soon
The radio plays our favourite tune again

There's a reason why
I never returned your calls
I wish I could forget it all
But I never returned your calls
'Cause I'd fall in again

Blossoms

In botany, blossoms are the flowers of stone fruit trees (genus Prunus) and of some other plants with a similar appearance that flower profusely for a period of time in spring. Colloquially, flowers of orange are referred to as such as well. Peach blossoms (including nectarine), most cherry blossoms, and some almond blossoms are usually pink. Plum blossoms, apple blossoms, orange blossoms, some cherry blossoms, and most almond blossoms are white.Blossoms provide pollen to pollinators such as bees, and initiate cross-pollination necessary for the trees to reproduce by producing fruit. more »
