Ciao, Bella



Surprisingly enough this is about one of my best friends, the "Bella" reference is from the book "Twilight" by Stephenie Meyer and is used because that's one of "things". Basically this song is just about trying to find out how close I am to her, if we're okay. We've been through a lot of really rough times lately, and this is just addressing it and going "Okay, there's all I have, and I poured it out for you. Are we okay now?"

Holding hands in the parking lot
Of your favourite movie,
We went to dinner at that cafe on the corner
Of 5th and Main,
And you ordered your favourite
Strawberry Smoothie,
And we're feeling much the same.

Where do we stand in our beliefs
Of each other's happiness?
What needs to change to make things right?
Where's it all gone?I think it left us for a spell
As we hear our hearts swell,
And break.

We've got a mess on our hands
As we sit on the steps.
In your front yard, we cried.
It's such a beautiful night,
And you were blinded by the headlights,
Beautifully mesmerised.

Where do we stand in our beliefs
Of each other's happiness?
What needs to change to make things right?
Where's it all gone?I think it left us for a spell
As we hear our hearts swell,
And break.

"Oh Bella, oh Bella," we cry,
"What're we gonna do with you?"
We could send you away,
Take our time to mend this.
And Bella, oh Bella, oh why?
Oh, how did we end up like this?
And Bella, Oh Bella, tonight
We're going back.

Where do we stand in our beliefs
Of each other's happiness?
What needs to change to make things right?
Where's it all gone?I think it left us for a spell
As we hear our hearts swell,
And break.

Oh Bella, oh Bella, this night,
It's flawless, just like you.
And why, oh why
Do we try so hard?
I'm playing my last card.

And tonight, tonight:
Oh, Bella,
Where do we stand?
Oh, Bella,
Our words in our hands,
Oh, Bella,
The night will come through for us.
Oh, Bella,
There's no need to fear,
Oh, Bella,
Cos I'm always here,
And Bella, I'll protect you with my life.
You're all I've got forever,
Tonight.
