Confetti Lyrics

Is love allowed to count when you're only a child

When all I could think about was your eyes

Wanting you to be my valentine

I, I, I

Starting at school and all I'd think about was you

Can I call it my first love if you never loved me too

When I was only young and I was only a fool

I, I, I

You set me up for a lifetime of pining away my days

When it wasn't you it was someone new and then I'd find someone

To replace them too, but it's always me just waiting for the day

I find what I was looking for

When I met you

There she goes again, they say, longing and waiting

That girl who sits by the window and finds a name

For every drop of rain, whose heart burns into a thousand flames

Then, like a phoenix, finds love again

Will she ever get tired? Will her heart ever just burn right out

Oh, she's a disaster

But you can't say that she doesn't try

I always get told that I'm so strong

That I can live out anything when the world has gone wrong

So why do I feel like a fool who only wants you

When I know I've got the world at my fingertips

I set myself up for a lifetime of pining away my days

Crying over songs I was too young for

I wanted to feel their words for myself

When it happened, I wasn't so sure

Now I find myself breaking my own heart

Time and time again, then I met you

There she goes again, they say, longing and waiting

That girl who sits by the window and finds a name

For every drop of rain, whose heart burns into a thousand flames

Then, like a phoenix, finds love again

Will she ever get tired? Will her heart ever just burn right out

Oh, she's a disaster

But you can't say that she doesn't try

Tracing your name onto my lips

And I know it's not the first time I've been like this

But I just know this one's gonna hurt

I've known the angel who lay by my side and wiped away my tears

And the devil who stamped on my heart year after year

I've had it all so far and I don't know where you'll fit

Never thought I'd rise up again, but I did

Now I wonder, will I end up right back there

Now I wonder, are you gonna tear me into confetti

That falls and falls and falls

Pretty till it hits the floor

There she goes again, they say, longing and waiting

That girl who sits by the window and finds a name

For every drop of rain, whose heart burns into a thousand flames

Then, like a phoenix, finds love again

Will she ever get tired? Will her heart ever just burn right out

Oh, she's a disaster

But you can't say that she doesn't try

You can't say that I don't try

I fall and fall and fall till I hit the floor

I fall and fall and fall

Pretty till I hit the floor
