My Last Breath (One Last Time)

One more time I gaze into those eyes, one more time I try to see deep inside. One more time I Smell your sweet hair, one more time I feel your presence in the air. One more time i hold you in my arms, one more time I kiss you under the stars. One more time I tell you I love you, One more time I dream of you. With every breath I cherish you, with every breath I fall deeper in love with you. With every breath I find it harder to fight how I feel, with every breath more and more I realize whats real. You picked me from the beginning and I'll stay with you 'till the end, always remembering how you're my best friend. Your kiss leaves me hypnotized, your love leaves me paralyzed. Bringing light to my life, a few years down the road hopefully becoming my wife. You take the breath right out of me, filling what used to be a hole with a heart so clean. What did I do to deserve someone as great as you? My gift from God, my angel on earth, I promise to never leave you hurt. My lighted way, my brightest day, hearing your voice erases my pain and helps me let go of my shame. Your touch so gentle, your kiss so sweet, you bring me peace whenever we meet. Everything they done to you, and all the pain you suffered through, all the things you could've been, I thank God you didn't listen to them. I will not leave you comfortless, I will come to you. I know theres pain that you hide, you stuff it down deep inside, whether or not it becomes too much to bear, I will never leave you suffering, standing there. I miss you more than you could ever know, I love you and am not afraid to let it show, we're still young so we take it slow, but no matter what I'll never let you go. Searching for nothing, wondering how I changed, thanking you for everything. Can't find the answers, I'm crawling on my knees, waiting for you to finally come help me. And when the day comes and one of us should die, one last time I'll gaze into your eyes, one last time I'll let you deep inside. One last time I'll hold you in my arms, one last time I'll kiss you, hoping the rest of your life I'll be the one who miss's you. one last time with my last breath I'll smell you sweet hair, but unlike this life my love won't end there.
