A STEP BEHIND
There's a story of love hidden in his
eyes,
that will send a rush of chills down your spine.
His smile will sweep you off your feet,
and make your heart skip a hundred beats.
He has a heart of gold, which is hard to find,
but still
I walk a step behind.~~~~
Knowing I love him but not being able
to find,
a way to tell my heart that
he'll never be mine.
His touch made my blood burn with desire,
his words always seem to lift my spirits
higher.
He's loving, sincere and one of a kind,
but still I walk a step behind.~~~
Yearning to hold him and love him tonight,
wanting to share with him, my life.
Searching for ways to show him I care
and wondering how often in his mind, I am there.
It breaks my heart to look into his eyes,
knowing he loves me but watching me hide,
from these feelings I have so deep in my heart,
wanting to say it, but unable to start,
changing the subject and finding other things to do,
when all I want to say is, I LOVE YOU TOO!
I try to tell him what's on my mind,
but instead....................
I keep walking a step behind.~~~
