Belle Isle

I found myself in a new city

I met you again fortuitously

And you quickly put yourself into my sights

I fell so hard my friends swore I was blind

And now I'm lovesick and sunburned

And summer's only beginning

I've done many foolish and hurtful things

Twisting myself up into the sheets with guilt

And I've let loads of men into my life

Who smothered me with jealousy and pride

But you seem so cool

And I'll bet you do make me feel like a lady

I wish you would hold me in your arms

Like the night we made out on Belle Isle

I know there won't always be fireworks

But we saw them that night for a while

I know that I'm very new in town

And I'm so scared my past will run me down for good

But when I see you looking back at me

I think you see the girl I wanna be and for now

This bitter earth is suddenly worth all the trouble

We danced to that song twice in a row and I can't let go all that easy
