Dear Diary
Flick Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is a song for everyone of us
Every fool who's ever been in love

Dear diary, guess what happened to me
You know that feeling, the one where you're heart skips a beat
There's something I gotta say, 'cause it won't go away
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling
I wanna say now, maybe this is just fate
But if I open my mouth, these butterflies will get away
My hands are sweating, I can barely hold this pen
'Cause when I write to you, I'm really writing to him.

This is a song for everyone of us
Every fool who's ever been in love
This feeling's like a drug
I'm an addict for attention
I can never get enough
It's lover versus ....

Take my hand
And hold it tight now
Shut your lies
And turn those lights down
I think I'm dreaming
This is unheard of
This is what it feels like to fall in love

Dear diary, what is he doing to me
When I think about him my thoughts are all fluttering
Is this the right move to make
Don't let this be a mistake
'Cause I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling

It seems with me .... think about his face
My love it gets so lifted, it feels like I can fly away
Dear diary, I have no doubt
He'll be the one for me until time runs out.

This is a song for everyone of us
Every fool who's ever been in love
This feeling's like a drug
I'm an addict for attention
I can never get enough
It's lover versus ....

Take my hand
And hold it tight now
Shut your lies
And turn those lights down
I think I'm dreaming
This is unheard of
This is what it feels like to fall in love

It feels like I can fly away (I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling)
It feels like I can fly away (I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling)
I'm falling

This is a song for everyone of us
Every fool who's ever been in love
This feeling's like a drug
I'm an addict for attention
I can never get enough
It's lover versus ....

Take my hand
And hold it tight now
Shut your lies
And turn those lights down
I think I'm dreaming




This is unheard of
This is what it feels like to fall in love
