I've written before
How close and how far you are
But nothing compares to you
I forever trust in who you are
Because nothing else matters to me
It's true what they said
You just can't catch love
It comes when it wants to
I've never cared for anyone else but you
You are my reason for everything
My life, my love, my very being
I know I've caused you pain in the past
But I've done all I can to change
And there is nothing more I can do
Except love you
I'm not perfect, but I'll try just for you
I pray that you heard me say to you
That I didn't want you to go away
I prayed every day that you would stay with me
But still, I watched your plane leave
It broke me apart
And these words I hold inside of me
Won't ever come around
Because of these games I have to play
I know we're both scared
But we've got to keep our faith
That our love won't change tomorrow
