Every night I look into eyes that hold nothing but love for me
And pray that the love I still hold for you he cannot see.
He has been the answer to my wishes, every womans fantasy
But thoughts of you still dance in my heart
And I find myself wishing we never did part
Wondering if your love was all I needed from the start
Afraid of the direction my life was taking, I just darted
Leaving you behind hurt me so, even though I was the reason we parted
Unable to look at you and say goodbye to the beauty we started
You left a mark on my heart when you rolled into my sight
And still have me checking for late night flights
Wanting your face to be the first thing I see in the early morning light
Eyes that hold the same voodoo spells as mine
Still make me smile when they cross my mind
The rest of my life has moved on, but one part stands still in time.
This should be that happiest time in my existence
Planning for my future family and growing old with a man like this
But thoughts of you still flood back, even with his persistence.
The life a princess and the treatment of a queen.
When I come into view, the way his eyes gleam
All the while I fall in to his world, or so to him it seems
How is it possible to have love for a man that I need so much
One that gives me nothing but happiness, kisses and such
But late at night, still earn for your touch?
Leaving him seems more and more like the wrong decision
But how can I promise him a heart that you still live in?
Lock him into a life that would amount to his prison
The years have not changed the feelings you brought out in a child
With so much yet to learn, even after a life so wild
You had the ability to turn the lion in me from vicious to mild.
By this time, our lives are too far apart to finish what once began
Two different people that could never again walk hand in hand
Opposite sides, opposing sections of a great land
Even with the impossibility of another chance
I still dream of one last, soft dance
One more chance to hold the man with a kings stance
Again, pain I am causing in my confusion
Unable to continue with a charade- driven illusion
Knowing that as a wife, I cannot be this mans solution.
The love has not left me, though years have passed.
I still can see the way you looked at me when I saw you last
Confirming in my logical thoughts that my time with you had past
Still in my heart you remain
And I regret the times that I have been the source of any pain
Remorse filled tears that my sacrifice of you to escape my trials was in vain.
And pray that the love I still hold for you he cannot see.
He has been the answer to my wishes, every womans fantasy
