The Love I Felt With You

Things got complicated, as they often do.

My heart aches but my mind says not to think about you.

I can't help but think where we would be,

if I'd listened to my heart, not my brain repeatedly.

We've met others, we both know it's true.

But no one makes my heart race like it did with you.

Hurt I was when I found out about those things,

But now with you gone everything around me stings.

I don't want sympathy, I'm only saying what I feel.

Others may deny it, but I know that love was real.

How could it not be when I miss you this much?

You moved away, taking my heart, and my favorite soft touch.

I shouldn't miss you, for I was the one who let you go.

But now I've learned now what I didn't then know.

I just want another chance to feel that way.

Someone who gives me butterflies, and when I say go, he'll stay.

Someone to hold me when there's tears in my eyes,

Who just holds me tighter with every tear from my cries.

Someone who holds me and never lets me go.

Who can look into my eyes and just say "Babe, I know."

I'm afraid I'll never have another chance to start over new.

Because the love I want, is the love I felt with you.
