Broken Dreams by Marie

Lyrics

[INTRO]
I was living the high life
About to start my life
Boom this boy comes along
The earth shatters

[Verse 1]
His name is Levi
I’m straight of high school, about to study for my degree
He moves to my town, approaches me and has a proposition for me
I was taken back, you’re moving too fast
And eventually I said I’ll give it a shot

[Chorus]
I met this boy, my dreams were dashed
He had this charm, and so I succumbed
I thought I was living the high life
But then…

[Verse 2]
I wanted so badly to be a writer, dreamed of being a streamer
But somehow my heart melted for you
You had this soothing effect on me
Next thing I know, you’re always in my bubble, ready to throw everything you’ve got at me
Smothered in love, we suffocated in bed
We were just having fun
But then something amazing happens

[Chorus]
I met this boy, my dreams were dashed
He had this charm, and so I succumbed
It wasn’t quite what I bargained for
Life was full of surprises

[Verse 3]
The feeling was indescribable
I never felt so much anxiety
It was quite a euphoria
So many unknowns
I took a test and it said we’re having an amazing miracle
I didn’t know how to tell Levi the news
What will he say?
I can’t hide it forever, so lo and behold Levi
And he couldn’t wait to share this miracle he and I created
He cherished every moment right as she was growing inside me
He swore his undying love
And we lived in peace and harmony, some pitfalls, but still peace and harmony

[Chorus]
I met this boy, my dreams were dashed
He had this charm, and so I succumbed
It wasn’t quite what I bargained for, but he showed me
Broken dreams make room for new dreams

[Verse 4]
It amazed me, that very first time we did it, the most meaningful thing happened
We were shook to no ends, but deep down this is what we wanted
It made us realize what really matters
Who we cherish, and not material pleasures
He broke my dreams, but he was my dream
My dream of starting something anew with the other half of my soul
And so life officially started

[HOOK]
And so we lived happily, hastily, but still happily

[OUTRO]
That’s the story of my life
I found someone, when I was looking for something
I thought my dreams were dashed but he was my dream
It stands to reason embrace the unexpected
And so life goes on
Forevermore it will never be the same
The earth kept shattering
