White Horse
Say you're sorry, that face of an angel
Comes out just when you need it to
As I paced back and forth all this time
Cause I honestly believed in you
She also dreamnt of falling in love like every girl does and it did happen. She fell in love. Her first love. Never did she know that nothing remains same after falling in love. Before falling in love, the heart is blank. Unwritten. Call it bad luck or destiny; she fell for the wrong one. The one she should have stayed miles away. But that's the thing about love, emotions and feelings started controlling her brain. She trusted him with all her heart and he mercilessly broke it.
Holding on, the days drag on
Stupid girl, I should have known
I should have known
She still thinks of the time he fooled her and how easily she got fooled. Falling for the playboy, that was her fault. Her only fault. She scolds herself for being that naive that she never understood his intentions. How stupid of her to become a toy in his hands and ultimately giving in to his wishes and desires.
I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
After the first love fails, the heart isnt the same. It is not unwritten anymore - the walls are now inscribed. No amount of scrubbing can erase the memories and the sketched images. It feels as if there is nothing left to give or to take. Useless as a barren piece of land.
This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it's too late for you and your white horse, to come around
She was a game for him. A bet. Have her in a month or lose the bet. That's what it ever meant for him. But she being the naive bubbly girl in love; had no idea. She thought he would be her bad boy who she will turn into a good boy someday. Her prince charming. He used to smile at her, and she used to feel like a teenager. A single touch of his and she used to melt in his arms. Simple as that.
Baby I was naive, got lost in your eyes
And never really had a chance
(My mistake, I didn't know to be in love
You had to fight to have the upper hand)
I had so many dreams about you and me
Happy endings, now I know
All she dreamnt of was their happy ending. Wanting to spend the rest of her life with him. She started to believe that he was her soulmate, her other half until one day she heard his friends congratulating him, for what...?? She wondered. And then her perfect little world collapsed when she realised it was 'For having her as his girlfriend... In just a month'. This was it. It was all unreal. His facade. She couldn't believe it was all a lie. The bouquet she brought for him, fell from her hands in shock. The ground beneath her feet was snatched away and she found him looking at her in shock. But something was more shocking than this. Not a single tear fell from her red and visibly moist eye. For he wasn't deserving enough for her to shed a tear for him.
I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
That day she realised life isn't a fairy tale and happy endings don't exist. She was broken... Devastated and scarred. She still sometimes thinks of that day when he looked at her in shock and took a step towards her. But she wanted nothing from him; not even an explanation. For she knew, even million words of his wouldn't affect her. She ran away from that place and hid in the confines of her room. And then she cried. Cried bitterly. Not because of the heartbreak but because of the pain and emptiness she felt within. For feeling like a fool.
This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it's too late for you and your white horse, to come around
She found him around her, all the time but there was nothing she could do. How could she ever explain to him that him calling her all day, sending sorry messages or standing outside her hostel building, wouldn't make up for the damage that was caused to her innocent weak heart. Her heart ached every time she saw him and those eyes made shiver ran down her spine, even after what he did to her. But she was adamant she wouldn't fall for him. Not this time.
And there you are on your knees
Begging for forgiveness, begging for me
Just like I always wanted but I'm so sorry
She tried hating him but from the core of her heart, she wanted him to come back to her. She wanted him to tell her that that was some misunderstanding and he still loves her. Truly madly deeply; as she once believed. She wanted him to apologise to her and start a fresh. But when he did that; she couldn't let herself forgive him. He told her he loved her, and that bet meant nothing to him. He now only wanted her and her love. Nothing else other than that. He begged her for her. But suddenly it all felt meaningless to her.
Cause I'm not your princess, this ain't a fairytale
I'm gonna find someone someday who might actually treat me well
This is a big world, that was a small town
There in my rearview mirror disappearing now
It was too late she guessed. She wasn't living in that fantasy world any longer. And she grew up suddenly. From a girl to a woman. She wanted someone who would value her more and respect her for who she is as an individual. She doesn't want the one who just don't treat her well. Things were crystal clear as a matter of fact. He was a mistake. A beautiful mistake. But who in the world lives with mistakes. People move ahead and forget their mistakes. And that's what she would be doing now. He doesn't deserves a second chance. Period. It's ok to get fooled once but falling in that trap again. Well that's a big no no. She wasn't falling for him again. Never ever.
And it's too late for you and your white horse
Now it's too late for you and your white horse, to catch me now
No matter how much he begged her and tried to make her understand. They weren't meant to be. She realised it and hoped he would realise it soon. He didn't deserve her. She was too good for him.
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Try and catch me now
Oh, it's too late to catch me now
There was no looking back. Yes he was her first love but who said love couldn't happen again. Yes the heart is inscribed now but there is always a space for someone else - in between the words and in the margins. And she was sure she would find someone, who will make his place in her heart. One day. For sure.
