Holding hands
Walking through the park
Shy advances were made
Quiet words spoken
Leaving me with a stomach full of butterflies
You made me feel strange
By moving at a slow pace
I got used to it
I thought about you
Now there's a decent guy
Someone who could love me, flaws and all
A man I could cherish for the rest of my life
Things went well
Then it happened
School got over, summer bloomed
I began to panic
What if I couldn't see you?
Would you think I was trying to rid myself of you?
So I took the wrong path
I tried to be kind
Break-ups are so hard
I did it so that I wouldn't get hurt
It didn't work
You ended up getting hurt
Tear drops filled my eyes
As we said good-bye and hung up
I had figured that you wouldn't care
But I heard the pain in your voice
Tears fall from my eyes
As I think about you
I couldn't find the strength to call you
To tell you I love you
That I miss you and need you
Couldn't apologize
I was afraid of rejection
But I'm swallowing my fear
I need to say something
I truly miss, need, and love you
And I apologize for all of the pain I caused
I want you so much that my heart aches
I'll understand if you don't want me back
If you don't speak to me
But I'm asking you to do the opposite
I shall wait for your response
Please tell me soon
And if you accept me
Please be honest and loyal
Tell me anything that bothers you
I'm done now
Thanks for listening
