I want to see things through your eyes,
So I can see what you love and despise,
I want to feel your feelings for me,
So I know what to do
To make you happy.

I want to think exactly as you,
So I know exactly, your point of view,
I want to hurt the same time as you,
But somehow I feel, like I already do.
Just for a day, I wish I were you.

ah yes, understanding the opposite sex...if it is indeed that.  but if we understood then we wouldnt be so intrigued, which takes away all the love.  we never truly understand, when we do, i believe the love will stop.

Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

This is good, simple. I liked it. I often wish I could do that.
