Special Words

Special words running through my mind
Constantly thinking them through
Finally knowing how I feel
And wondering what I mean to you

Special words wanting to be heard
Hoping your heart will allow them in
Shaking hands holding yours
Struggling where to begin

Heartbeat racing faster
Drawing the happiest of tears from my eyes
Knowing I am not strong enough
Apologizing that I began to cry

Weakening knees in your presence
Emotions exploding inside
Everything I ever wanted to say
No longer is able to hide

Losing myself in every moment
Ever spent with you
Capturing your perfect heart
Is something I am longing to do

Thinking of you during the day
Dreaming about you in the night
Tingling in my whole body
Feelings that have never felt so right

Hoping my lips will not fail me
Praying they will come out right
Impatiently longing for you to hear
These special words tonight
