Wish I Knew You When I Was Younger

I wish I knew you back when I was younger 
I'd devoured your love with so much hunger
Your deliciousness I sure do crave
You're nothing short of strong and brave 
Your flavorful taste gives me such an appetite 
You're a morning, noon, and evening delight
You give me such an adrenaline rush
You know just what to say to make me blush
Thoughts of you make me weak at the knees
You fill my stomach with butterflies and make me buzz like bees
You got me losing sleep at night 
You're a one of a kind and are so patient and polite
You create sparks within me, a passionate fire
You filled an empty void in me with so much desire
Your smile is breath taking and captivates me
With you love is the only thing that I see
You say I'm cute when I'm mad when we get into a fight 
I love making up and holding you tight
You give my heart wings and make me feel like I can fly
Your arms offer me such comfort when I break down and cry 
You fill my soul with a beautiful song and dance all of its own
I didn't know this kind of love existed until from you it was shown
I love when you kiss my hand and forehead
With you I discovered chivalry isn't dead
You opened doors for me and stole keys to the door to my heart
With you I want to grow old and never be apart
I want to keep taking on the world with you, together I feel stronger
I wish I knew you back when I was younger, I'd snatched you up and loved you longer
