My feelings for you
Are still quite unclear
Or, maybe it’s that..
I’m just not willing
To open my eyes,
To open my heart..

Insecurities
Not understanding
Fear and confusion
Some hesitation

Not ‘cause of you, it’s
‘Cause I don’t believe
In that miracle
Of “love forever”

What lasts forever?
What ‘ever may stay?
Life is so fickle…
Constantly changing,
Changing direction…

When something got tough
I used to give up
But…I’m here right now…
‘Midst the happiness
Missing…and wanting…

‘Cause I know that I
Care for you so much
And I can see…us…
Today, tomorrow
‘Ever and ever…

So hold my hand tight
Walk with me today
Talk to me right now
Together, this path
May we take for now…
