Wish I Knew
It was just words that we would whisper
To get us through the nights
Or dreams that came to visit us
When life just wasn't right
A comfort from being lonely
Thoughts to occupy the mind
Never really possible
It was never the right time
And after I was quiet
When the lines began to blur
You found where I was hiding
Knew right where my thoughts were
And you swooped in and won me
Took me right off of my feet
Showed me what is really out there
When two unselfish hearts meet
Showed me how to share in a moment
To be kissed without a rush
To be held onto with a passion
And be graced with your soft touch
Now you've set up camp inside of me
But you've gone so far away
So the part of you that's mixed in me
Misses the real you every day
And you took some of me with you
I'm not sure you even know
If you feel me thinking of you
Wishing you didn't have to go
Always waiting for a word from you
Hoping you're happy
Wishing you the best there is
Even if it isn't me
But somehow looking for the happy end
Hoping you miss me too
Wondering where our story leads
I really wish I knew.
