One Night, One Day, and Now
That day, I could hardly wait to see you again
I drove those three hours just to stare into your eyes
Only to leave in the morning not long after the sunrise
"Call me when you get off the exit" you said
You were going to meet me and let me follow you back so I didn't get lost
You pulled your van next to my car
I got out and walked over to where you were
You opened up your arms; I threw my arms around you and held to tightly
I didn't want to let go
As we pulled back away you leaned in and kissed me so very passionately
I had missed your kisses and your touch so very much
We made our way back to your place where the passion did not end
Not to mention the pleasures we both surcame to and to them willingly gave in
It was a night that will be forever etched in my mind
Locked away here in my heart to re-play it time after time
We shared in love, laughs, and sorrow
Knowing with each passing second, we would have to part come tomorrow
Morning came and we said our goodbyes
You making me promise to call when I got home and a hug and kiss so long
I know right there with you is where I feel so strongly I still undoubtedly belong
I couldn't even watch you drive away, I turned quickly and stepped away
But, you're still trying hard to get over her
We were talking for awhile there, yet now I haven't heard from you in days
I'm hoping you're just busy and haven't decided to once again let me go
I opened my mouth the last time we talked and asked a question I regret
I think that maybe the reason you will not answer my calls
I pushed to far too soon, knowing what you're going through
Even though I've changed a lot the past few years, sometimes insecure Sandy still come out
to play
Oh how I wish I could just make her go away
I did what I said I wouldn't I let my heart and soul once again become attached
And now I miss even just hearing you voice so completely
I can't even think straight
I will take you anyway I can have you a friend, a lover or so much more....
....but for now all I can do is sit here and wait
To love and fall back in old routines is so easy, it's never easy to say goodbye and walk
away never to return again
