Guess

Can someone enlighten me...how I'm supposed to feel?
How'd this simple stumble become a head-over-heel?
Questions like these I ask all day to myself.
Gotta guess, 'cause answers are not to be found.

Guess timing and circumstance trump desire and connection.
Guess hope and will get erased under closer inspection.
Guess dreams find no foothold, if they have no direction.
Guess reality is in conflict with my imagination.

Only a fool keeps hoping, against overwhelming odds.
That these feelings can outweigh sense. Love is lost.
So many questions I seek instruction about.
Until answered I'll just guess. Clueless like a clown.

Guess timing and circumstance trump desire and connection.
Guess hope and will get erased under closer inspection.
Guess dreams find no foothold, if they have no direction.
Guess reality is in conflict with my imagination.

But in my imagination...everything is so clear and real.
The kisses and the smiles fortify me like steel.
In my imagination, we love all day on the beach.
In my imagination, you're here... not out of reach...

Guess timing and circumstance trump desire and connection.
Guess hope and will get erased under closer inspection.
Guess dreams find no foothold, if they have no direction.
Guess reality is in conflict with my imagination.
I wish reality was in sync with my imagination...
