Hold Me

Once again you've shut the door
Closed your eyes and you're trying to ignore
The feelings you still hide
The ones for me you hold deep inside
You know those desires that just won't subside
Being where you are right now, is that where your heart truly at
Try to make it work with her and that's just that
Well you need to take a good hard look around
Queit and listen you'll hear the sound
Of her changing who you really are
So have you yet started gasping for air, if not well then from that you're not that far
She'll see to it soon enough
So tell me is this what you're calling being in love
I believe, as I know you do, being in love is when you give over completely your 
heart and soul
You lose any and all sense of self control
Your strong yet vulnerable and yourself you undoubtedly surrender
But still for now you continue to be a pretender
Open your eyes take down that wall
I promise I'll be there to catch you whenever you fall
Look back and remember I'm willing to bet
The time we spent together, in whatever way, you don't regret
And I know damn good and well you will never forget
Reach our and again trust in me
Then you'll finally see
What has always been meant to be
If only you would briefly hold me...
...give  me a chance to show you what I mean and then in the end
you may find your true love yet again...
