The Feeling I Have
i hate the way i feel right now
i feel like there is a hole in my heart
like there is a missing piece in my life
i want you to want me the way i want you
i didn't know it at the time, but
when i first met you is when i fell in love with you
i look at you and i just get lost in your eyes
you make me smile and you make me laugh
you make me want to be with you and you only
i want to feel your body against mine always
i want to fall asleep in your arms
and wake up every morning by your side
i could wish on a thousand shooting stars
and wait endlessly for my wish to come true
the wish that i make
is for you to love me the way i love you
i know now that you are the only one
who can fill the hole in my heart
i have been waiting all my life
for someone like you to come along
and now that you are here
i don't want to lose you
i feel so lucky that i have found you
i know in my heart
that i will wait forever for you to love me
but i know forever will never come
i hate this feeling
the feeling i know will never go away
the feeling i have whenever i am with you
the feeling of being in love
it tears me apart knowing you will never love me
it breaks my heart
