In the middle


 

I’m technically single but my

Heart is taken by someone I can’t

Call my own.

And I try not to think about him

But it’s not working.

Cause when I’m with him,

I feel safe from the things

That hurt me inside.

I didn’t mean to fall in love

But he made it so easy.

I guess it’s no surprise

That I got lost

In his brown eyes.

I wish he could see

The effect he has on me

How he makes my heart skip a beat

And when I'm near him I feel complete.

I think about him every day

I plan out exactly what to say

I want to tell you him I feel

But the voice inside make me hush

He doesn’t even know, he has no clue

Just how much I think of him

And I try not to stare, I try not to hide

So I keep it down inside my heart

Hoping that nothing falls apart

Wherever he goes, my heart will follow

I hope my heart will never be broken

All because of my love unspoken.

One day I meet someone

And for some inexplicable reason,

I feel connected to him this stranger more than anyone else.

When he came into my life

He changed everything

Raised my standards, and even though

I’m not with him, I don’t want to let him go.

There’s something about him

That I can’t put into words

All I know is that, everybody has an addiction,

Mine just happens to be him

And now that he’s here

I can never

Replace him.
