Need you Now


Heart feels so overwhelmed I look into your eyes And see the unexplainable Twists and turns of unexpected Happiness and sorrow All rolled into one smiling face But I see you Your eyes tell me your story Your background Your essence and future I can see you And who you wish to become Do you see me? What do I have to do My feelings so strong Couldn’t have happened at a better moment How we met- it all seems to have Happened so perfectly for a blessed reason More than I ever expected But everything I hope for I just want you My heart remains timid Not wanting to break again I can’t handle that again Afraid to move forward Do you even like me that way? How can I be sure? With a past full of empty promises I need to know I can trust your word Without that, we are nothing Wanting so bad to feel you But I can’t I don’t know how I try, but I’ve not done this before Had the choice But now that I do I choose you Will you do me the same pleasure? Looking into your dark, complex eyes, it seems I can only wait But I can’t I need you now
