These butterflies tell no lies
Fluttering in my stomach
Telling me you're the one
My thoughts can't escape you
My mind can't erase you
Your smile forever etched
In my soul
Your eyes so electrifying
Your smile so intoxicating
Your laugh?
All of the above
I can't stop thinking about you
And I can't help but wonder
Is it I that is on your mind?
My words are so cliche
My thoughts, a bit juvenile
But my love for you is genuine
I would wait for forever
To feel your embrace
To savor the feel of your lips
As they bursh against mine
I would wait for forever
To hear your whisper
To finally smell your aroma
Which I'm sure will weaken my knees
I would wait for forever
To entwine my fingers with yours
Knowing you'll never let me go
Knowing you'll never let me fall
Knowing you'll never let me go
For now I leave you to my dreams
I capture you in my imagination
I close my eyes in hopes of finding you
And open them, hoping to feel your embrace
For now I leave you to my dreams
Leave you for my imagination
Yet you're so real
But I cannot feel your touch
Yet you're so real
But I cannot hear your whisper
Yet you're so real
But I cannot taste your kisses
Yet you're so real
Yet you're so real
My thoughts can't escape you
My mind can't erase you
Your smile forever etched
In my soul
I can't escape you
Because you're so real
I can't erase you
Because you're so real
I would wait forever
I would wait forever
Because you're so real
So real

And my heart tore after opening this. The first few stanzas, and I was begging my eyes not to collapse at any given moment. It's almost like the lover you find in your dreams. Not the "dream guy". But the actual lover you fall in love with whom you meet in your strongest dreams and your most encarcerating daydreams. And he or she sweeps you off your feet everytime you close your eyes. And he or she will run through any thought you place between the two of you, and find you.
Oops, I forgot to be rational.
