Can't Let You Go And I Want You To Know...

Every time we touch I want you more,
More than I ever did before.
The love I feel for you,
Consumes me like you do.
I want to hold you close,
You're the one I want most.
But everything tells me it's wrong,
I've wanted you for so long.
You're the one that makes me smile,
Makes me laugh if only for a while.
I see the sun shine in your eyes,
You never told me any lies.
I wish that I could say the same,
But on my shoulders lies the blame.
My heart races when i think of you,
Our love is pure, Our love is true.
I never knew I could feel this way,
And one word is all you have to say.
I quiver when you touch me,
You break my resolve so easily.
When you whisper in my ear,
I know I have nothing to fear.
But I'm scared of how I feel,
These feelings are vivid, they're real.
I'm tripping and I'm falling,
Each time I hear you calling.
But now I can't turn back,
I know what I used to lack.
And when my heart was breaking,
For you it was aching.
But you made me stand fast,
I feel so happy, happy at last.
You pieced my heart back together,
And in return I'll love you forever.
