Just To Be

At the sound of your name my heart starts to race,
And only redness can be seen across my face.
I try to control the way my palms sweat when you say my name,
But your voice alone drives me insane.
I duck my head, ashamed of the way you make me feel,
But that doesn't change the fact that the feeling is real.
The impact you have on me is just not right,
It's as if I'd do anything to be called your wife.

When you're around me, no one can be happier than me,
It is as if you make me be at the best I can be.
Your presence alone is intoxicating,
And when I'm in your arms, I feel as if I'm floating.
Your lips against mine, spins my head around,
I give in to you as your charm throws my guard walls down.
I struggle to break away from your irresistible powers,
But it seems as if I have no choice but to fight to be your significant other.

I count every moment on the clock as the time slowly tick away,
I impatiently wait for the time when just hearing you would make my day.
I'm always happy and smiling whenever I think about you,
And I can't help but to wonder if you're thinking about me too.
But then reality hits and I hate the truth,
You already have a lover to run home to.
But like magnet to steel I'd never be too far,
I'd give everything just to be in your heart.

It is said that time is the only distinguisher between love and like,
And I can prove to you that this theory is right.
I've had a lot of ups and downs since I met you but that no longer matters,
I'd be useless without you like a dried-out marker.
If this was simply like, I would have forgotten you to find someone else,
But like law to a lawyer, without you, I wouldn't be myself.
I love you so much and I know for sure that this is true,
I'd do anything just to be with you.
