What Cruel World Would Let Love Slip Away

What cruel world would let love slip away?
What cruel intention does this life offer 
when dangling love in front of me 
like it hasn't already received my attention! 
I fast forward back in time when we were alone 
and I was too scared to mention 
that I felt a fight or a flight reaction 
but I was just lost in direction... 
Fast forward to now and I only wanna fast forward 
to when we promised life will start in new direction... 
I'm amazed by your ways, 
by the subtle inclination that you would be mine right now 
without any hesitation!
