As we chatter my heart tends to drift
wide open to emotions side
There I amerce in every word
which cleaves to pedals pride
We dance among a glance or two
we savor every heart beat felt
And I have pause to fill my heart
With what would make it melt
I travel the world within your sent
To know one moment there with you
And yet I waited all this time
To reveal this private thought for two
In love is where I love to be
And there with you I'll share this
I have loved you all this time
But my lips dare never say this
Does a lone rose smell as sweet
As when we intertwine together
Does my hearts longing not repeat
what my eyes have said forever
