Sorry Seems To Be the Hardest Word

Sorry seems to be the hardest word

Is it hard to say sorry to someone you love? 
When he acted that way because he was hurt. 
Is it hard to say sorry to someone you love? 
When he already apologized from his heart.

Is it hard to say sorry to someone you love? 
When he just could not handle your words.
Is it hard to say sorry to someone you love? 
When they hit him hard and sharp like swords.

Is it hard to say sorry to someone you love? 
When all he wanted was your sweet kiss and hug.
Is it hard to say sorry to someone you love? 
When he already swept his pride under the rug.

Is it hard to say sorry to someone you love? 
When the night is over he knew there will be none.
Is it hard to say sorry to someone you love? 
When he sleeps tonight and let another day come.

She Said Yes

SHE SAID YES
It was one June night when I first laid my eyes on you. At the coffee shop you were talking and I was just stunned by the view.
I was almost speechless as you continued to share things about yourself.
Deep inside I was shocked and asking what is happening to myself.

Then we planned to have breakfast one saturday morning.
I talked to myself and practiced the things to say while I was walking.
I learned you love breakfast food one thing I like about you.
Aside from your beautiful smile and a heart that is so true.

Then we never saw each other again for several months.
But we continued talking to each other thru stories on instagram.
We were even supposed to meet in Singapore for a day or two.
Until I decided not to go because of personal reasons I needed to attend to.

Fast forward to October and we were finally together at the coffee shop.
The same night I realized you are for real and why did we stop?
I never thought that the woman I was praying for was right there all along.
That with you by my side everything is perfect and nothing could go wrong.

Now I am here in front of you stuttering with words to say.
Knowing that words are not enough and thinking of other ways.
Let me love you for the rest of our lives, Jamie.
But first let me ask you this, will you marry me?

How Much Do I Love Her

I asked myself this and expects a good reply.
I will just tell the truth and not a single lie.
How much do I love her? Ohh, love let me tell her why.
It has only been five months but she made a huge impact in my life.

I love her so much.... I can't even live a single day without her.
Through good times and the bad. Life is better because of her.
I love her so much.... I want to travel the world with her.
Making lasting memories forever. Experiencing firsts with her.

I love her so much.... She’s the first thing in my mind in the morning.
And after a tiring day at work, it is her that I prefer seeing.
I love her so much.... She’s the last thing in my mind before sleeping.
Hoping that thinking of her that it is her that I will be dreaming.

I love her so much.... That without her I will be incomplete.
She is my life, my inspiration and the air that I breathe
I love her so much.... That I want to spend forever with her.
Get married, raise a family and grow old with her.

How Did I Know I Love You

HOW DID I KNOW I LOVE YOU?

when I look at you and get lost in our eyes
when my heart is feeling happy at an all-time high
when I think of you I just can’t help but smile
when I look at your photos every once in a while

when eating is more enjoyable when I’m with you
when I don’t regret breaking a rule or two
when I look forward every weekend to be with you
when I cling to you and stick like a glue

when we read our books inside a coffee shop
when I am with you I just want time to stop
when I hug you so tight on a Saturday night
when I kiss your lips and feel everything will be alright

when I am inspired to be the best I can be for you
when I promised I’ll make you happy believe it is true
when I am willing to work this out no matter what
when I imagine my future with you no ifs and buts

No Demands, Just Go

Where are your words I need to feel okay.
But you seemed to have plenty earlier today.
Don’t I deserve a few of those my love?
Is it hard for you to say what’s in your heart?

I see one thing but you see another.
What can I do to make this better?
All I want is to feel loved in moments like this.
Why do I feel alone and being dismissed.

Now you want some time off to fix this.
I don’t want to argue just go do your thing.
Wondering now if this is something I deserve.
To all the love I am willing to give in return.

I love you so much and I’ll do whatever it takes.
I don’t blame you with what I feel I’ll take the pain.
I will prove to you that I am here to stay.
Even though you feel like running away.
