Another Year

Another year has came and has gone
Yet still for your love I continue to long
Like I'm captured in some kind of spell
You are my heaven, but right now I happen to live in my own personal hell
I so wish you would break down, give in and call me
To tell me that what I feel so strong
Is not at all in any way wrong
But that it's the real thing
Instead day and night I sit here holding on to a single, thin, and very fragile string
I'm breaking more all the time
I know I'm definitely crazy and am for surely losing my mind
I can't help it when it come to you there's just something about your way
That leaves me holding on tightly and hanging on to each and every word you say
My sweet pain for you I can never let go it's the price I willingly pay
For walking away so many times keeping inside the chances of what should've been said
The weight of the words have many times brought me to my knees and constantly my heart, 
my very soul for you has done nothing but bled
But all this too I can't let go because then you see I get to have you in some way
I get you in those memories between us quite unlike any other
I know you are my soul mate which to me is so much more than just a lover
The wicked rain has fallen from my eyes before
So many countless times, yet still I can't shut tight that door
I'm right back to my velvet laying on the floor
And although I don't get to hold you close for now it would seem
I still get to have you completely in all my dreams
So for now on us we have once again come to close
The love we share in deeple together and went about to do as we choose
Hopefully this will have seen it's way through before too long
Before another year has yet come and gone
I know in your arms is right where I belong
