Union Pulse – Instead lyrics

we first met in a crowded hall on graduation day,
she signed my paper, smiled at me, and walked away.
then we met in an empty hall the size of my lonely heart,
optimism called my bluff and that dream fell apart.

now i’ve been told,
if you’re in love then go ahead
but ever since, i sing instead.

many times i’ve bet my pride and ventured to the door,
and though i’ve failed i’ll here confide, i wish to seek once more,
i’m lonely and i need a hand to help me through the day
and with her strength, i’d rise and stand – so help me lord, i pray

now i’ve been told,
if you’re in love then go ahead
but ever since, i sing instead.
