I tried not


I tried not to love you, but my love is deep and true. There's nothing that I'd rather do than spend my life with you. Looking into your eyes I feel, like I'm gazing into a beautiful dream. I imagine endless romance, beneath the moonlight's silver stream. You're an angel to these eyes, and you don't even have to try. Heaven sent you to me, as if you'd fallen from the sky. You're an unending desire, my greatest need. You make my heart come alive, my soul bleed. I'm set free from the chains that once held me back, From love, every time I hold you close to me. And when you put your hand in mine, I feel that I can become, all I ever hoped to be.
