Controlled By You

by Emma Carnage   May 16, 2005


I felt your hand
It stroked my heart
Gently at first
Then it pulled it apart

Perhaps I really do love you
I’ve never truly used that word before
Although it still might not be true
My feelings are all at war

You’ve been such a good friend
Maybe that’s why I keep thinking this
I keep wanting to be in your arms
I keep begging for just one kiss

I just don’t know what to do
I doubt things will work
Because that’s just my luck
But the feelings still lurk

I guess I just have to get over you
You wouldn’t want me anyway
I guess I’ll give you up
Try to keep my feelings at bay

This love is not fading
So I just won’t tell you
I can’t stand another broken heart
These feelings will never debut

If only I could tell you how I feel
I would shout it out again and again
Say how much I love this boy
He would be able to take away my pain

But I can’t tell you of this love
I have to keep it all inside
The feelings won’t go away
So I’ll just have them hide

I can’t stand not being with you
I can’t stand not holding your hand
All these feelings have control of me
They all finally took command
Don’t ask me how or why
I just don’t understand
