Courage To Tell

So fighting to stay awake turned into a pretty sleepless night...
And I wish you were here, wish I could wrap around you tight...
But I try to feel good just knowing everything's alright...
And I know it is because you're still in my heart and in my life...

I can finally say all there is to say,
I've given my all just to be able to display
Through my actions and my words,
But fighting the ones I want to say most...

Loving you came easily
Faster than it ever came to me
And you are more than I could imagine you'd be
You mean everything to me...

To hear you say the words I feel
To know that what I believed was real
To feel without a single doubt
I'm not the only one who had to let it out...

And I could read those words over and over again
I could feel my heart swell when I saw them
And maybe in person would have been ideal
But sometimes it's just best to finally say what you feel...

So the next time you are here with me
And looking at me lovingly
I'll be able to tell you how I felt it was impossible
For things to be better than they already were...

But I should have known things only get better with you
Every look you give me, everything you do
I always smile from the inside and out
And I feel it now without a doubt...

You had my heart and you still do
Maybe it's cliche but I always knew
That if I ever had the courage to tell you,
Your response would be that you loved me too...

You are and always will be everything I wish I had...
