This one never mine
Made alot of mistakes in a life,
felt days of regret asking heaven why.
But that day you came in
like a gulfstream hurricane
thankfully wasn't one I let by.
Found myself out of the haze on a bright new jetway,
yet undeserved from my point of view.
One that almost didn't come true,
and so lucky for me that you knew.
Oh how stupid can one guy be?
Thinking back now..
how scared I was., of you.
Back to our first conversations
my attempt at seeming disinterested
like a vagrant court jester.
Then you leaned in close,
for the little kiss,
I almost dismissed..
yet still taste.
Still waited for opportunity to knock..
for life to take me away to another place,
where I could make an honest living,
earn an honest wage.
You go on now, run free awhile
so glad I got this chance to feel,
though I often tripped on my words.
I have these memories,
that breeze in a smile.
So many words I needed you to hear,
so many dances and last chances left undone.
Yeah, made plenty of mistakes in a life dear
but loving you wasn't one.
