Walk This Way
Dr. Sinclair B. Ferguson Lyrics

OK so I call about a thousand times
I persistently try to contact you despite getting no response.

I wait outside and I join the line
I'm so desperate to be with you that I'll wait in long lines just to see you.

With a million girls that are just like me, ooh
I realize that I'm not the only one who wants to be with you and that you have many admirers.

I got your name saved on my screen
I have your name saved in my contact list, which makes me feel closer to you.

It says how much that you love me
I interpret the messages you send me as evidence of your love, even though they may not be genuine expressions of affection.

And I know that it's not a dream
I convince myself that our relationship is real, even though it may not be.

It's like I keep on giving with nothing in return
I keep trying to please you without receiving any kind of reciprocation or acknowledgement from you.

Just a constant burning
I feel a persistent longing or desire for you.

I'll never learn
Despite the fact that I don't receive anything in return, I continue to pursue you and don't take the hint that our relationship is one-sided.

But let me just fairytale that we are in love
I choose to believe in a romantic story that may not be true, because it's more satisfying than the reality of our relationship.

I'd rather live my life this way
Even if our relationship isn't real, I prefer to keep living as if it were, because it brings me happiness.

I close my eyes and you kiss me
In my mind, I imagine or dream about us kissing, because it feels more intimate than our actual interactions.

You say how much that you miss me
In my imaginary scenario, you express affection and longing for me, which fulfills my desires more than the real world does.

And no one compares to what we've got
I feel that our imaginary relationship is better than anything else I could have in real life, which further motivates me to maintain the fantasy.

Then I wake up and it's just a dream
Reality sets in when I realize that the romantic scenario I imagined isn't real.

Somehow I wish it was reality
Even though I know it's not true, I still hope that the romance I imagined could be real, because it brings me happiness.

Trying to deal with the fact it's not
I have to confront the truth that our relationship is just a fantasy, which can be painful and disappointing.

And I ain't ever gonna learn 'cause
Even though I know I should move on and find a real relationship, I don't want to give up on the fantasy that I've created.

It's my life anyway
Ultimately, I have control over my own life and I choose to live it in a way that makes me happy, even if it's not entirely based in reality.
