Escape

No one seems to understand
loving you is where I stand.
Many say, “It’s just a phase,”
that I’m wandering this endless maze.
They say I’m weak from what I speak,
that love only blinds, don’t mind his physique.
“Don’t be a fool, let him go
he’ll turn out cruel, don’t you know?”
“Don’t let happiness depend on him.
Chances are the flame will dim.
Don’t give in to his charm
love will only do you harm.
Hear of me, for I know
take it easy, take it slow
take your time to fall in love
you’ll just be made use of.
you’re too young to understand
the meaning of love and where you stand.”

No one seems to understand
when loving you is where I stand.
It feels incredible, but so surreal
receiving love is how I heal.
Take my hand, my eyes plead
I see the love, I see the need.
The only story they convey
told in your eyes, take me away.
I feel desire in your touch
I need you now, all too much.
They say I’m lost in your glow
I wonder how they’ll ever know.
No one understands how I do..
in love is where I stand, here with you.
