How

How can I describe
The feeling you give me,
What are the words I cannot find?
Or the description I cannot see?

Long ago, oh so long ago
I swore I would never mend,
Somehow, you tore the barriers down
Hopes and smiles you also did send.

How is it that something like you
Could come my way,
I never imagined such a thing
I never dreamt such a day.

You are always on my mind
I hold our picture close every night,
It’s like even my fears and doubts agree
Something about us is right.

When you call me
Nothing has to be said,
Knowing you are on the other end
There is nothing I need dread.

When we are apart
I feel so weak so full of fear,
Nevertheless, when I know you are close
I feel no reason to shed a tear.

How is it
That I have to let you go,
When you are the only thing
My deepest desires know.

Do you fear losing me
The way I do you,
How do I move on
With just someone new?

Hold me close
If just one last time,
Don’t let go just yet
This loneliness should be a crime.

Can I live in my hopes
Can I make my dreams come true,
Could you be the one for me
Because all I want is you.

I know I am young
But I understand so much more,
Just the thought of not having you
Makes me sick and sore.

Don’t make me give you up
Lord please let him be mine,
At least don’t take him away
Without him, I walk a thin scary line.

I think of you
My heart skips a beat,
I fall into a daydream
This happiness I warmly greet.

You are so clear in my thoughts
So vivid within my soul,
I still remember the day you came around
Rescued me from my hole.

How can I lose you
When it’s like you belong in my heart now,
To give you up
I need your help to tell me how.
