(Adrianne) What The Stars Knew: I

dmeemai on October 3rd, 2007 File Under lyrical attempts

“I’ll call you,”That’s what you said
The Sunday we met,
So I waited and waited and waited.
Still you haven’t called

Whatever it is you’re doing,
Can’t you spare a minute
To give me a ring?

Tonight is Wednesday
And as I sit here anticipating,
Constantly praying
All of a sudden I know.

I can sit here now forever
And snivel altogether
Until the tears run salty on my cheeks
For all of a sudden I know.

I know what the stars have known
All the time.
You’ll never, never call…
Never.

(Arion) What The Stars Knew: II

dmeemai on October 3rd, 2007 File Under lyrical attempts

“I’ll call you,” that’s what I said
The Sunday we met,
But each time I tried
My mind just fretted.

Every day I pick up the phone
To spare my minutes to call
But I am afraid I’d sound like a clown
And so I turn away.

Tonight is Wednesday
And as I sit here waiting,
Aching to call you
All of a sudden I know.

I can sit here now forever
And snivel altogether
Until the tears run salty on my cheeks
For all of a sudden I know.

I know what the stars have known
All the time.
I would have made that call
If only I had the courage.
