How Do I Tell You?

How do I tell you what I feel inside?
How do I express what I just can't hide?
You make me laugh and smile every day,
You make my painful memories fade away.

It was always winter in my heart,
My life had been torn apart,
But that was before I met you,
That was before I knew.

Now I can't wait to see you,
Though we just said 'goodnight';
It's not fair that I miss you,
It's just not right.

Because I've never felt like this before,
And it scares me half to death;
But I won't be lonely anymore,
If I can just catch my breath!
