Maybe Then
by: O' Puppy
You're lying there fast asleep and
another day
has passed. One more moment that
your heart
was starved of the precious
feelings its needs
and I know I have missed another
opportunity
like so many before to show you
how much
I truly care about you and need
you in my life
Tomorrow, yeah, one more chance if
I am
that lucky, maybe then I will get
it all together
and find the right time and all
the perfect words
to let you know that had it not
been for you, I
would have never gotten by all
those times when
the weight of the world was
resting on my shoulders
All those yesterdays that are now
gone forever are
moments that I can forever look
back on and smile
only because you were there to
share them with me
And here I am so many memories
later asking myself
why I haven't held you the right
way and told you just
what you have meant to me from the
beginning
Too many times, I have managed to
find convenient
excuses to put everything else
ahead of you when if it
were not for you, I could never
have had the desire or
reserve to even contemplate all
the endless tasks I was
forever consumed with that only
took me from the most
important issue which was spending
time with you
As I close my eyes next to you, I
do so with the promise
that when they open once more, no
longer will selfish
unimportant day to day decisions
come between the love
we both vowed to live for and I
will do everything in my
power to keep you first in all my
decisions as you are in
my heart with every breath that I
take
In the most rewarding way, I need
you to forever realize
that only because of you in my
life I have become the
beautiful person inside that I am
today. So sleep tight my
precious other half as we both
wait the rise of one more
day together with each others
love. Maybe then you can
close your eyes with the love you
were so denied tonight.
