Just Like Then, I'd Fight To Love You

by RadianceInReverse   Feb 29, 2008


From day one
you captured my heart
even when I thought I couldn't stand you
I truly wanted to be the only girl in your world

I tried my hardest to ignore you
but my heart held tight to loving you
every moment by you side caused fear to grow
fear of rejection, fear of losing your glance

I held on to my hate
for as long as my heart could stand
and with no strength left, I unwillingly gave in
from that day on it was you I wanted to belong to

With butterflies stealing all breath from me
I nervously took my place next to you
each day I longed to confess my undying attachment
but the coward inside took over my weak mind

I would do anything for you
just to hear you laugh
or to see your blue eyes brighten up the room
you were the only dream that filled my sleep

Without courage, I lost my chance
Someone else told you my secret
with not another word, I was ignored
all hope was gone, I'd lost you

I forced myself to move on
still looking at you from a distance
I fell in love with another,
still wishing that you were the one who held me

You were too late
when you finally showed your love
I had a new dream, a new reason to smile
Fear stole our hopes right from beneath our wings

Since that dreadful day
I've thought about you
wondered how you were, if you were being loved?
I never forgot you, not once

It felt like centuries later
when I finally saw your face again
and yet it was as if you had never faded from sight
your blue eyes still took all breath from me

Clinging to you, I once again wished
to be by your side every minute I could
like so many months ago you overwhelmed my mind
not a second went by that joy didn't fill my heart

Weekend after Weekend
I longed to see you again
and as the months went by, my love grew strong
soon I realized that I wanted you, just like then

But this time I wouldn't loose my chance,
this time I leaped a strong barrier
and kissed you first, just to show
the words I couldn't speak

Four months have past since then
and I couldn't be happier
because your the only one who haunts my dreams
the only one I can't wait to see,

Just like then,
I would do anything for you
just to hear you laugh
or see your blue eyes brighten up the room.
