Don’t listen to me

Don’t listen to me

Don’t listen to the words I say,
If I were to tell you,
Not to be you anymore,
If I say you shouldn’t ever tell me,
Those kinds of things that get me thinking,
There’s more between us than meets the eye.
When I hear your voice on the phone,
Sounding so soft and sweet in my ear,
It doesn’t matter what you say,
It’s just the sound of your voice,
It’s just that it’s you on the other end of the line,
That sets my heart and soul afire.
When you tell me it was so good to see me,
When all you ask for is a simple hug,
When you look into my eyes,
That way that you do,
You have no idea how much it hurts me,
Having to let you go away, again.
Forget these words coming from my mouth,
When all I really want to say,
Is how much I’ve missed you,
Missed seeing you, missed holding you,
Missed kissing and loving you.
Afraid to say something to break this moment we’re in,
Afraid to find it’s only a dream I’ve created,
Replaced by the reality that we’re not together anymore,
How can I go back to that world?
When I know this is where I want to be,
This moment, this place, with you.
Just ignore the fact that it kills me inside,
Knowing you and I can’t be any closer, anymore.
Putting a muzzle on my mouth and my heart,
Trying to keep from saying the words,
That after all this time,
I’m still in love with you.
