i wish i could find a way
to thank you for everything you've done for me.
i wish i could kiss you enough times
so you know how much i truly love you.
i wish you knew
that i want you forever.

you've loved me more than i could know.
you've done more for me than anyone else.
you'll always have your place deep in my heart.

all i ever wanted to do
was lay in bed with you.
let me slip into your arms
and have our skin touch in the most beautiful way.
we have all morning
and we always end up forgetting those things we needed to do.
you touch my hips and kiss my forehead.
i catch your breath and demand to be held tighter.
i look up at you.
sometimes thats all i need to be okay.

i indulge myself in thoughts
thoughts of
laying in that bed with the gentle sun rising, music still playing and a tired straw on the table. i never knew then what would become.
skipping class to just lay with you in the smallest bed possible. it didnt matter who else was in that room. we had each other.
driving with you from that far away place with my hair blowing in the wind and smiles covering our faces. we were ever-so-grateful to be finally together.
i thought it'd be forever.
i thought i'd never have to kiss anyone else again.
i thought we had it all.

i won't ever be over you.
so i ask one thing
dont ever get over me.

we can try and walk away.
we can finally say we're letting go.
we can give up.
we play these stupid games.
but you won't ever fall out of my heart.

we're meant for each other
so why cant we make it work?
