Nearly sixteen years ago
I walked away from him
Through trials and tribulations
We found the beginning of our end
Although we shared five years together
We ended up saying goodbye
I walked away without hesitation
And set out to find a brand new life
Spent years in other relationships
Ended up married and now separated
Found out that the other side
Was surely overrated
Now the mommy of a little girl
No longer a rolling stone
But I found myself running from
Long nights of being alone
Stepping out into the world
It is a bright new day
I knew I needed to find my place
A happy place where I would want to stay
After talking with some old friends
The few that stayed in touch
I realized old friends surrounded me
Friends that I had missed so much
I ran into a former love
One who was once my world
Found out he had been involved
for a long time with a girl
He said he was unhappy
That he was not feeling satisfied
And we began discussions
About the things we wanted out of life
Something struck me deep
As I looked into his eyes
As quick as an instant cup of coffee
My heart has been revived
Everything I always wanted
Was starring back at me
The minute that I saw him
I knew I never wanted him to leave
He gave me new reason to believe
Every aspect of him
Is the molding of my perfect man
Someone who pays attention
And seems to understand
Someone who cares for me
They say the heart does not lie
It took very little effort
For me to realize
That he is the reason for my smile
And the cause of my new glow
He gives me a brand new reason
To let my feelings go
They say History repeats itself
And I can surely agree
Because he has made an impact
And he has captivated me
I want to wrap myself up inside
I want to be his girl
I want to be his every breath
I want to be his world
To be his past, present and his future
Is where I have set my sights
I want to cuddle up with him
When I go to sleep at night
I need to be the reason for his smile
I want him involved in all I do
He is my new achievement
A long lost dream come true
Guess I really never knew
But today - I do!!
