thought process of a girl who wants love to last but is apprehensive due to her past.
the way i love you shouldn't be taken lightly
i try to focus on what is, not what might me.
my brain says you like me-my heart says it's more.
if you don't feel either way, then i'll show you the door;
because i don't have time or the patience for a long wait,
and i can't be friends with the man who's my soulmate.
So please don't just placate me with the girlfriend title
because i know for a fact that our first big fight'll be the last one.
I'd rather be idle and feel all alone
than sit up late nights waiting for you by the phone;
and no, that ain't how it is now, but please believe
you'd be doing a favor if you get up and leave.
you know my pet peeve is someone who wastes time.
i hope you're not thinkin' i don't want you as mine-
look at you-you fine, and funny, and smart.
you know how to treat me; you have a big heart.
But i want you to be happy with the girl that you choose,
so if you feel sad, or frustrated, or confused,
then i don't see why you should be here.
and to be honest with you, my greatest fear is that
one day you'll no longer want to do this;
and you'll never again want to be touched or be kissed
and you'll truly be missed, so if you get that desire-
or you feel our relationship's lost its fire,
then please let me know so that i can let go.

the way i love you's far beyond expression.
you have become my one true obsession.
i know that i'll surely love you forever, for worse or for better
when will i leave you? NEVER.
