We always had a wishlist, I list it down every night.
It hasn’t changed much.
I have someone to hold hands with on third on this long list,
the rest are all dreams.

I am a fixer,
with potential
and I drive people crazy just by existing.

We always had a wishlist,
I list it down every night.
It hasn’t changed much.
I have so many dreams
and one of them is you,
who I may have never met.

I see holding hands with someone,                who is not a stranger, I have never met.
I am not quick to trust,
with potential to give chances
that line up
that has no end.

I remember my first heartbreak
and it felt like it shattered my existence.
But I have you holding my hand,
third on this list of mine.
I hope you have me on third too.

I hope you have yourself at first or second
because I want you to take care of yourself first
before you fall for my eyes
and mainly after.

My wishlist is too long
and I hope you hold my hand through it all
and I promise I’ll cheer you on for breathing.

Your mere existence will make me fall for you all over again.
