Back Then

How very true

This was a girl I knew
Way back then
My feelings for her
They knew no end
I used to stare at her
And she didn’t seem to mind
My feelings for her were so real
Something that no one else could feel
I would dream of her every night
I couldn’t let her out of my sight
And I always imagined it what it be like
To have her by my side
So I asked her out one day
She said yes and I didn’t know what to say
I didn’t care how I dressed before
But I cared that night
Our little date turned out great
I couldn’t wait till we’d meet again
Moments that we felt
It all seemed so right
She was always on my spotlight
Then came one day
She said to me
I’m sorry I led you astray
But things just can’t be this way
I just stood there devastated
My feelings they got cheated
Waited for better words
But they didn’t come
There were countless hours on the telephone
My ears ringing from the dial tone
Faith had been replaced with logic so cold
It turned out to be a nightmare instead of a dream
Heavy with a sense of resentment
I used to be so much different
Sometimes life can be a pain
It's like lighting candles in the rain
Its like throwing feathers at the wind
They come right back to you again
And now my name she’d probably forgot
Along with the gifts that I had bought
These are the thoughts that are on my mind
Moments that haven't yet been defined
And I don't know if she would ever understand
The feelings I had for her were for so long
But those days are dead and gone

Here We Are

Here we are
Face to face
We forget, time and place

Hold me now
Don't let go
Though it hurts and we both know

The time we spend together's gonna fly
And everything you do to me
Feel so right

When you love me
I feel like I could cry
Cause there's nothing I can do
To keep me from loving you

Here we are all alone
Trembling hearts, beating strong
Reaching out, a breathless kiss
I never thought I could feel like this

I want to stop the time from passing by
I wanna close my eyes
Feel your lips touching mine
And when you're close to me
I want you more each time

Here we are once again
But this time we're only friends

Funny world
Sometimes lies become the game
Where love's the prize

And though no one knows what's going on inside
And all the love I feel for you
Is something I should hide

When I have you close to me
The feeling's so sublime
There's nothing I can do
To keep me from loving you
