I never did find the reason,
The reason I couldn't love you,
Love you with all of my heart,
Share everythign I was, or would be.
I always looked the other way
When you came too close.
Scared of things I didn't know,
Affraid of the way things might turn out.
I never let fate take it's course,
I always fought against it.
Not wanting to embrace reality
For what it was, I let you go.
Those times spent wondering,
Wondering how to get away,
You should have listened
To every word I said.
You should have stayed longer,
Longer in my arms,
Longer in my presence,
And forever in my warmth.
I should have walked with you
On those chilly, starry nights.
Held your hand and shared dreams
When you showed the courage to ask.
Now, sitting here alone,
Still seearching for a reason
The only way I can have you
Is in my memories.
Struggling through the flow of tears,
I realize with my entire soul
And all the feelings I subdued so well,
I should have let you love me.
