You

_.:`\*/`:._.:`\*/`:._.:`\*/`:._.:`\*/`:._.:`\*/`:._

Your face alone shows what your feeling

Your eyes are windows for your thoughts

Remember staring at the celing

And holding hands in parking lots?

I won't forget the way my heart leapt

When you asked me for that kiss

Or when my heart broke and I wept

thinking all that I would miss

~-=*=-~-=*=-~-=*=-~-=*=-~-=*=-~

For you I used that good old saying

Good things will come to those who wait

And after weeks of friendly playing

I took you on that first real date

In your absence I was lonely

But once at home you weren't the same

I cried few tears, a few tears only

I guess that no one was to blame

~-=*=-~-=*=-~-=*=-~-=*=-~-=*=-~

You always seemed so glad to see me

Light from heaven shone in your eyes

We could laugh so loud and freely

A romance none could criticize

But when you hid what you were thinking

Our burning flame began to strain

As I cried you stood there blinking

They told me you weren't worth my pain

~-=*=-~-=*=-~-=*=-~-=*=-~-=*=-~

Through all the years of loves and losses

You have been there by my side

Through any paths that my life crosses

In only you I can confide

I think we all take you for granted

You are the link that keeps us whole

On you all my faith is planted

You are my heart, my breath, my soul
