I figured since you're leaving here
I could tell you everything I've felt
With the guilt and the pleasure
And the cards which I was dealt.
It's funny to me how things work out
In this journey we call life.
The relationships we create
Can be amazing or barely survive.
I've had many friendships in my life
And they can come natural or be hard.
But something about when you smiled
Took me completely off guard.
I built up a wall a while ago.
I thought that it was safe and sound
No one had even rattled it until
You made it come crashing down.
Each time Tuesday night came around
I felt empty and alone
I was laying by myself,
But you had someone to hold.
The weekends that I went out
I met many other guys
But none of them were quite like you
And the price wasn't worth the prize.
But it doesn't make sense to me
Because you're the most dangerous of all
You have someone that run to
And it's not my number that you call.
You knew exactly how I felt
When you made your move
But I can't resist your touch
No matter what it is I do.
I try not to think about you
Or miss you when you're away
But you made a permanent spot
And you're memory is here to stay.
But I apologize for tempting you
And helping you get off track
But look down deep and make sure
It doesn't go deeper than that.
I'm not saying I'm the one for you
But you strayed for a reason
You need to figure out what it was
Before you make your next decision.
If she meant so much to you
Why did you risk everything you had
Maybe I gave you the bait,
But you grabbed on real fast.
The funniest thing of all
Is that I'd do it all again
To have the chance to kiss you
And hold on to your bare skin.
When I'm with you, I smile different
It's more gentle and sincere
My eyes glimmer with a different light
And I just want to hold you near.
I care about you so much
And I'm going to miss you when you're gone
But maybe it's the only way
I'll be able to forget you and just move on.
But don't forget to let me know
When you get some life changing news
Like whether or not you're getting married
And where you're going to move.
I think I need to thank you, too
Because you've taught me so much
I shouldn't settle for anyone
And my heart picks who I love.
You impressed my heart
And you confused my mind.
My heart fell for your smile
But my mind knew it wasn't right.
That didn't stop me from falling
This is more than just a crush.
I love your laugh and the way to talk
Or the way you shiver by my touch.
I love how you smoke your cigarette
And how you laugh at your own jokes
I love how you say "You OK?"
Even though I tell you that I don't.
I love the way you stutter
And the fact that you want to teach
I love the way you rubbed it in
When the Astros beat the best team.
I love the way you took me out
When my best friends wouldn't dare
I loved our late night talks
And I adore your facial hair.
I love the way you piss me off.
And how you feel bad when you do.
I love everything about you, kid
But mostly, I just love you.
