Sleepless Nights

I once again wake up in the early am
I wonder where all this began
You are the reason why I toss and turn
It's being near you for your love is what I yearn
But here I am alone in the twilight
You are the reason for my sleepless nights
If I had the courage to tell you
Maybe I would sleep past two
But til then I will hide how I feel
Too afraid of rejection if I reveal
How my heart jumps when we speak and I can look your eyes
Once again at night alone and alone I cry
The urge to tell is so strong, even though my tunnel has no light
I thank you for the sleepless nights
Soon you find out from a friend of a friend
So now I can no longer pretend
We talk about how we feel, we agree it must be fate
Now everyday just to see you, I can't wait
We are now engaged and you are a bride to be
I thank you for all in the world you have given me
I still struggle, but now it's with happiness and delight
Thank you my love for the sleepless nights
