Having You

I’ve watched you for so long,
Wanting to have you here, holding you in these arms.
Never said a word. Never said how I felt.
Never opened my mouth from being too shy.
When I saw you under night’s light,
I was stripped of my air; just had to talk to you on this night.
Please forgive me because I usually don’t do this.
I’m feeling uncomfortable, but you’re worth stepping out of my environment.
Before I go on, I want to tell you I’m no player.
I don’t have so-called game or one-liners.
Outside of the norm, I have manners.

As I look into yours eyes,
I’m starting to unravel,
Starting to become uncovered,
Unable to hide all that is within me.
I’ve waited so long for this chance,
Hoping to make you my life’s slow dance.
Never thought that I could be your kind of guy
Because you deserve one who can give you, show you the world…
One who can provide you with all your wonders.
After many crazy situations and after failed relationships,
I decided to stop selling myself short
And come to you so you can stop selling yourself short.
Creating something so powerful between us.
Something of substance, something we can trust.

A whisper in your ear to make you giddy, make you ooze
Characteristics of true happiness that exudes
Sincerity to the heart…something smooth,
Warm to the soul…causing you to smile involuntarily.
Tell you that you’re extraordinarily
Perfection in my eyes. Give me your heart, your soul.
Reveal depths no one else knows.
I’ll wipe the tears from your cries…
No sheep’s clothing….nothing disguised.
I’m acting on raw emotion.
No words left unsaid, everything out in the open.
I refuse to walk away, leaving
Without your hand in mine.
I know it’s spontaneous and sounds crazy, but it just feels so right.
Let’s fall in love for the first time.
No more playing. No more going in circles.
No more ups and downs. No more roller coasters.
The chemistry is intrinsic.
Promise you it’s worth it.

Though you’re not looking, you want it too…
Wanting to satisfy love’s hunger deep inside of you,
Needing to be set on fire by passion,
Wanting to feel safe & experience compassion.
You had been searching but don’t want to search no more.
It’s staring you in the face. Embrace it…don’t tell me to go.
Won’t strip you for who you are.
Will make you my centerpiece, my star.
I’ll scream it from the mountaintop,
Telling the entire world
Having you is my mission.
I’m chasing you, chasing love and need your permission.
Looking at you I’m looking at my life,
Seen when I first saw you.
