Held by warm arms

by katie dear   Sep 16, 2007


Last night
you were with them
i saw them unexpectedly
and along came you

never before have i seen your face
oh boy my heart thumped like it won a race
well after talking for a minute or two,
i didn't want to
but i had to walk away from you

that night when the band was on
i saw you standing there with empty arms
i wanted to fill them
but i didn't know you

so we hung out
i got a text
it read do you like him

you watched me reply to my friend
and when i said yes
she whispered in your ear
held in the arms of her man
she gave me this look

i felt warm arms wrap around me in the cold night
as i looked up
it was you
while the screaming was loud
and the stereos screamed
we stood still and serene

your phone rang
it was time for you to go
thats what i heard then you said no.

you turned off your phone
and got closer to me
after that song you were leaving
the perfect song was on
"we need a little love"
and baby thats what we got

when you had to leave
you leaned in to kiss me
it was dark but of course it missed

we walked
to where your other friends were
holding hands
were we in love
we were pretty sure

i walked to the entrance of the stadium
this is where i stop
if only you could stay
i would miss you alot
still held by warm arms it was completely dark
you still held me tight
you kissed my cold lips
said goodbye and goodnight
two words i wasn't ready to hear

you walked away and left me in tears.

I love you Matt and I'm glad i still get to see you.
