Can'T Pretend Anymore

how do I make you understand?
how do I tell you "I love you" without pushing you away?
how I wished you knew..
how I wish you loved me too..
these feelings are so strong.
I'm battling with my emotions every day.
I stay up late at night thinking of you
and then I start to cry, it's so overwhelming.
you stole my heart, without knowing it..
the first time you held me close
the first time you kissed my lips..
when you first held my hand..

I can't pretend.
I need you
I want you
I crave you
you're all I desire.

when you come around I'm speechless
I don't know what to say..
my heart starts to race
I can't stop smiling
I get butterflies
and when we get intimate, I completely lose it
I wonder if you feel the same.
how I wish I could read your mind..

I can't pretend.
I've fallen hard
