I Think of You
I think of you young in the day,
Wishing there was something I could say,
Trying to find the right way,
To beg u and plead u to stay,
You’re my sunshine,
One day you’ll see,
You’ll find,
You can’t live without me,
Then we can live with all of thee,
Spend our life together,
And live a real life forever.
I think of you in the bright sunny afternoon,
Wishing I could build around us a permanent cocoon,
So I’d never let you go,
There must be someway to show,
A way to let my feelings glow,
I really don’t know how,
Everything about you is just so wow,
If only you could see me now.
I think of you in the evening,
My heart is still mending,
All my love to you I am sending,
It’s forever lasting and never-ending,
This pain I have tried blending,
Hiding it from everything,
No such luck it’s you I am still wanting.
I think of you in the middle of the night,
I sit up and cry with all my might,
Not knowing why,
That no matter how I try,
I can’t say good-bye,
I live my life in a lie,
Telling myself to stop showing the pain in my eyes.
So now you see,
I can’t break free,
My heart cannot flee,
You’ve got a grip on it,
The flame here is still lit,
Water won’t put it out one bit.
Loving you is something I for some reason cannot resist.
