I Thought I Lost You


My heart is racing. I'm waiting for you, by the door. You told me you'll be quick. The time is growing longer, i'm sick. 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4. Where are you, my love? Why haven't you walked through my door? Maybe you're at a friend's house or there's a line at the store. You could be working on a surprise or maybe something more. I got that cold call, a horrible knock at my door. Man in uniform, not my hunny once more. I race to your side, race to see your face. You didn't reach your destination, you made a quick mistake. Your messages could wait but you read them right away. You are still with me, greatful you were spared. tearful, overjoyed, i'm a ball of emotion as I look into your eyes. I thought I lost you.
