"I am coming to terms with the fact that loving someone requires a leap of faith, and that a soft landing is never guaranteed.” - Sarah Dessen (in "This Lullaby")

Chasing After You
With just one simple smile
I feel my heart soar through the air
I can’t control these feelings I have
Even when you aren’t here
This unimaginable effect you have on me
I don’t know how you do what you do
‘Cause it’s pulling me right into your arms
If only you noticed, if only you knew
That there’s a girl out there
Whose heart you’re making whole again
With all this recent happiness I’ve been feeling
I don’t want whatever we have to end
But I hope you realize soon
That I want to be more than friends
I want to make all the other girls jealous
When I reach down to hold your hand
I want to rest my head on your shoulder
And watch you take my breath away
I want you to spin me around in circles
And make me forget about my day
Just say the word and I’ll be there
But for now, I’ll be waiting for you to
Please don’t take too long though
Don’t know how much longer I can last chasing after you.
