The Songs of My Heart

I found a reason for me to change who I used to be. A reason to start over new. And the reason is you. I found a reason to show a side of me you didn't know. A reason for all that I do, and the reason is you. I know you're not a perfect person, but now only one song is going through my head when I think about you and can describe exactly how I feel:

"Let's talk this over, It's not like we're dead, Was it something I did? Was it something You said?Don't leave me hangingIn a city so dead. Held up so high, On such a breakable thread.
You were all the things I thought I knew, And I thought we could be.

You've got your dumb friendsI know what they say. They tell you I'm difficult, But so are they. But they don't know me, Do they even know you? All the things you hide from me, All the stuff that you do
You were all the things I thought I knew, And I thought we could be.

It's nice to know you were there. Thanks for acting like you cared, And making me feel like I was the only one. It's nice to know we had it all. Thanks for watching as I fall, And letting me know we were done.
You were all the things I thought I knew, And I thought we could be.

You were everything, everything that I wanted. We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it. And all the memories, so close to me, just fade away. All this time you were pretending, So much for my happy ending."

Well guess what? I'm back to who I used to be. And that's not a good thing.

You said it wasn't all about the 'looks', but now I realize all you wanted was a lady in the streets and a freak in the bed. Pain is love, and love is pain.

Well written, but i get confused with which parts are quoted and which aren't. You don't ever put end quotes.
