I Miss You With Each Heartbeat

I sure found out from years that have past by
That for all this time
Loving you seems like some kind of crime
You won't answer or call
I sit here and for you continue to fall
However through it all
I've become stronger than you realize
No need to protect me or shield my eyes
I can't change who or what I am
I won't keep standing there with my head in the sand
I've changed before
And on that I've shut the door
I know now I have to be me
And I have to be free
Live happy
You can't hide your true feeling again
Let them out, let me in
I'm down on my knees
Ready to do what it is you please
By you temptation is where I'm ready to be lead
Even though many times going down that road my heart has bled
I need you to show me the right side of wrong
In this moment is where we belong
With the leather and the lace
Flying high all over the place
Seeing that look upon your face
When all is said and done the moment gone away
Will you do as I and think of me then everyday
Will our wild hearts be tamed
And will we be able to still look at each other the same
Yes I am stronger than you know
Even if I still can't quite let you go
Facing and telling it all this I believe stronger is exactly what I've shown
My fears I now own
Not the other way around
Quiet now not a sound
Except for our hearts beating ever so loud
To you I can't help but be bound
How about you can you release some of your fears
After all these years
Or will you keep them inside
Run away again from your true feelings and continue to hide
I am here putting on the line my heart
Knowing it might get torn apart
Talking to me well that's a start
And when we once again meet
Remember this--
I miss you with each heartbeat
