To you I say I'm sorry for the feelings i never knew,
I couldn't say with certainty that what I wanted was you.

But yet you still listened every time I spoke a word.
It didn't matter what I said, to you it was always heard.

When I was in your company I felt totally at ease.
Nothing seemed in possible; in fact it seemed a breeze.

As your arms wrapped around me, I felt your warm embrace.
I knew you understood me, with you I felt so safe.

You truly understood me and what I was going through.
I didn't have to say the words, you just simply knew.

So many times I looked at you and you brought tears to my eye.
But yet I couldn't bring myself to let it go and cry.

The roller-coaster I was on, you had been on it before.
But i didn't want to know if it, I didn't want to hear any more.

Yet every time I talked to you, I felt so open and free.
I only wished I had seen then and now there could be a you & me.

That weekend that we spent together, I didn't want to part.
I knew the day I first met you that you had taken a piece of my heart.

That eve we walked in the woods, the way you held my hand.
The moment that you kissed my lips, I knew it would all be grand.

As I returned to home, the sadness it began
And so the tears they started, down my face they ran.

For the first time I had been happy in the arms of a guy.
But yet i felt so guilty, I could do nothing but cry.

It’s only now that I realise my feelings they were true.
In these past few weeks all my thoughts have been filled with you.

There is nothing i can do now; you have found I'm sure a great lad.
If he always makes you smile, well then I'm truly glad.
