MY BEST FRIEND
You were always there for me but I was blind and could not see
That it was you all along who was the one that really loved me
I never imagined that we would be together
Now all I can imagine is you...forever.
I look at you and my heart begins to melt
I guess deep inside it was something that I had always felt
I was so afraid to let it show...
It just seemed easier to let it go.
I did not even realize that you looked at me that way
Now in your arms is where I desperately want to stay
Of all the men that have ever been close to my heart
You should know how scared I was to have it torn apart.
You have been my friend through the laughter and the tears
For you, my darling, know all of my fears
You have shown me that my heart is safe with you
I know that you will never be untrue.
I know that I almost ruined it this time....
But you must believe me that I am so proud that you are finally mine
You can be sure that it was just my fear that made me want to run away
But now I know it is in your arms that I want to stay.
You always gave me your shoulder to cry on
When yet another had hurt me and done me wrong
I never realized how much this hurt you
If only you had told me, if only I knew.
I never meant to hurt you that you must know
I was just too afraid to let my feelings show
Now tI know how hard it was for you to see
Other men becoming closer and closer to me.
But now that I know I dream of your touch
The one who has loved me so very much
I know now that there is no safer place for my heart
Than with you where it should have been from the start.
I want to thank you for being so understanding
Even when my needs were so emotionally demanding
Now you will always be my lover and my friend
I know that my love for you will never end.
So as I dream at night about forever
I know that we will always be together
Now that I finally do see
How very special a love between two friends can be....
