You told me you love me I pushed you away You held me close and kissed me I begged you, "Please, not today" You gazed into my eyes I felt your heart burn You touched my hair And kissed my tear But still I didn't want To let you near I've been hurt before You said "I understand" But please don't love me I can't stand to be hurt any more You told me you love me, Again and again I can't love you yet, I have to heal You said "I'm here for you, just say when" I left it alone, Went on my way But I couldn't forget you, Day after day Your words echoed in my head You told me you love me But my pain has made me feel dead I woke up one morning And watched the sunrise All I could see was The look in your eyes When you held me close And wispered sweetly, I love you forever, I love you completely I couldn't forget you For a moment that day I was shocked when I heard myself tell you, I feel the same way I love you forever, I love you completely I couldn't let your love slip away I knew if I did I'd live to regret it You told me you love me I could never forget it I found my true love By letting my fear go I love you forever, I love you completely, I'm letting it show! |
