A Moment Like This

You don't realize what you mean to me;
With you I'm who I want to be.
Making me laugh when I feel I'm going to cry;
Putting no pressure on anything, because you don't have to try.

I thought I could be the bigger person and watch you drive away;
But deep down, I just need you to stay.
Why is it so hard to look at you right now;
A broken heart mended, but I don't know how.

Just one stare into your amazing eyes;
Takes the fear and pain away, and hides all the lies.
You say I have no idea what you are going to miss;
Maybe I don't, but we will never get a moment like this.
