[align=center]Holding me all night long,
Cuddling tight, to our song.
You look at me with such desire,
Your passion burns hot as fire.
Been hurt before, I try to feel
That this is different, this is real.
Different emotions swim in my heart,
So much trust just torn apart.
I want to see, I want to believe,
I want to ignore thoughts that deceive.
When you hold me tight and I get lost in a kiss...
I know I can love you... much better than this.
You?re getting half, but deserve my all,
But I can't let go, afraid to fall.
I tell myself, "It's better this way,"
My heart, protected, no pain to pay.
I would be the one to fall
If I let go, and broke the wall.
Your face so sweet and so sincere,
My heart craves to hold you near.
But past mistakes haunt each day,
I tell myself, "It's better this way."
An open heart I lack and miss,
'Cuz I know I can love you much better than this.
When you feel the pain and start to cry,
I sit alone and wonder, "Why?"
Why the tears, can?t you see?
I?m not crying, nope, not me.
Don't be so emotional, it opens doors,
It causes battles, emotional wars.
Sometimes I feel it, when unaware,
Strong sensations, to really care.
When you drop to your knees from misery?s bliss,
I know I can love you... much better than this...
But I tell myself... "It's better this way."[/align]
