Right here, just East and me. Together.
This
was home.
Back in Time
Every time I come across your old picture
Or think I spotted you in a crowd
My heart still races ‘til I realize you’re not around
And every time I find myself all alone
I can still hear your laugh
From across the room, you’re trying to hold it back
I wish we could travel way back in time, time
Hash out the details of our old love affair
Back when we each had a partner in crime, crime
We would fight, make up, and still be in love
Back when we had it all and we took it for granted
Lost in the moment nothing was planned
We’d lie under the stars, and sometimes we’d dance
I remember our long goodbyes at the end of the night
And our first “I love you”
Oh, you had me spinning around the room
I wish we could travel way back in time, time
Hash out the details of our old love affair
Back when we each had a partner in crime, crime
We would fight, make up, and still be in love
I can still feel the rain, like it was yesterday
Falling like teardrops on my face
I look at you wishin’ I could press freeze frame
With your sad eyes, you tell me you’re leaving
I replay the moment, calling for a rewrite
I should run after you, instead, you fade into the night
I wish we could travel way back in time, time
Hash out the details of our old love affair
Back when we each had a partner in crime, crime
We would fight, make up, and still be in love
Oh, let’s turn back the hands on every clock
Time is all we need to recall
When the memories weren’t memories at all
Oh, every time I come across your old picture
I can’t help myself, I go back in time with you.
Imperfect Princess
I’m a mess, I’ll admit, I go back and forth no commitment
Sometimes I’ll say the wrong thing
Or laugh aloud in the middle of a business meeting
Oops, I’ve done it again, another almost ending
Another shot in the dark
,
wishing on a lucky star
Hoping prince charming will come rescue me
Whisk me away like a knight in a story
Wouldn’t I make the most imperfect princess?
Oh, yeah, the most imperfect princess
And I’ll have to agree, I’m my own worst enemy
Sometimes I’ll laugh at nothing
It’s just an inside joke, no one else seems to know, yeah
Another shot in the dark, wishing on a lucky star
Hoping prince charming will come rescue me
Whisk me away like a knight in a story
Wouldn’t I make the most imperfect princess?
Oh, yeah, Oh…
At the end of the day, I’m standing in the pouring rain
My hair’s messed up and my make-up’s washed away
All I want is you and me, the perfect end to my fairytale, baby
I’m imperfectly perfect
Oh, wouldn’t I make, wouldn’t I make
I’m imperfectly perfect
Oh, wouldn’t I make, wouldn’t I make
The most imperfect princess.
The Unknown
I’m not really good at these kinds of things
I don’t want to talk about all the possibilities
I’m not the kind of person who’s easy to have
And hold onto but I don’t want to let go
I just want to live in the moment now
Don’t stop and don’t look down
Capture this moment and hold on
We are jumping into the unknown.
Stuck in this free fall and god do I love it
Wind in my hair and you right there with
Oh feeling, feeling completely hopeless
It’s something and I can’t control this
I just want to live in the moment now
Don’t stop and don’t look down
Capture this moment and hold on
We are jumping into the unknown
And I can’t think with these butterflies inside
I’m losing control and I wanna take flight
Come a little closer, baby hold me tight
Oh, we’re jumping into the unknown tonight
I just want to live in the moment now
Don’t stop and don’t look down
Capture this moment and hold on
We are jumping into the unknown.

Acknowledgements
This is my second published book, which sounds entirely surreal. (Can I just take a moment to squeal?? Eeek!) I want to thank each and every person who helped me make this happen. The beta readers who helped me make this story better, by offering their thoughts, suggestions, and encouraging words. Chauna, Nicola, Leta, Leidy, Argie, Ashley, Crystal, Christie, Bethany, and Tammy. (Hopefully, I’m not leaving anyone out…) You guys are the best! Thank you. Oh, and Jessica, thanks for not getting mad when I kept asking “are you done yet?” haha. Angie, thank you for making me an amazing cover! It’s beautiful.
Rogena thank you for editing my books. Without you I make too many mistakes… and since this is the only part you didn’t edit, I’m sure it’s littered with them! Ha. (Sorry!)
I’d also like to thank my family for their encouragement and support. Without them, none of this would be possible. H&E—I love you.
And to everyone else who helped me navigate my way through this crazy self-publishing journey, thank you! I am very grateful that I have been able to meet so many wonderful and supportive bloggers, readers, and other indie authors.
THANK YOU!
