about

Inspired by Hopeless by Colleen Hoover.

Written from Dean Holder's POV but with some lines that were written from Sky's POV.

lyrics

Not everyone gets a happily ever after
Sometimes the world forgets sometimes you need a new chapter
But I will spend every breath
Thanking you for loving me
And I will try to give you my
Heart

Cause life is real and life it hurts
And I don’t want another first
I wonder if it’s possible
To fall in love all at once
You have already saved me
And now I know you piece by piece
This isn’t me saying yes
This is me begging please

All I want is you to be honest to me
There’s nothing more perfect than what’s standing in front of me
And I’m so proud of who you found
The person you are now
We don’t just love, we don’t just kiss
We live

Cause life is real and life it hurts
And I don’t want another first
I wonder if it’s possible
To fall in love all at once
You have already saved me
And now I know you piece by piece
This isn’t me saying yes
This is me saying please

Ugly endings aren’t pretending
Cause life is screwed and so are we
The sky’s the limit and we can live it
We can survive and come out free

Not everyone gets a happily ever after
But I wanna thank you for giving me the answers
