I'Ve Never Had
I've never had someone hold me this tight
I've never seen the stars shine this bright
When I was with you even though
it's was only one night
I felt things I've never felt before
You wine and dined me like a queen
Made my smile come out through the rain
You made me feel such pride inside
To have someone like you by my side
and I can see your real by just looking into your eyes
It makes me want to compromise
You've got me wanting to run away
But still I'm here and I shall stay
I've never had someone make me feel elated
You highlight my pros and minimize my flaws
and when I'm in your arms I feel like I have it all
I can't get a grip on this feeling
My heart is going up and down and round and round
My insides are melting down
I don't know if this is for real
So my heart will be superficial
I vow right now to never back down
I will let this good thing happen to me
Whether the outcome isn't as good
I want to say for once I've had
a love so great your knees start to bend
So for all it's worth I think I will plunge in
I pray this time I won't get hurt.,
