You had me at hello
Before I knew it, I could no longer say no.
Days became weeks, weeks became months.
You took my heart, not in pieces but in chunks.

Running my fingers through your long black hair
Puts me at ease and removes all my despair.
Looking at you,
Your face
Your eyes
Your lips
Puts my entire world to a standstill.
Something only you can do, against my will.

I'm scared.
And I try to act like I don't care.
But every time I try to walk away from it all,
I find myself looking back for you.
With my back against the wall.

What do I do with this feeling inside me?
I wrapped it up and gave you my heart as plain as it can be.
But even then, it wasn't meant to be.
What do I do now, how can I be free?

If I bury my feelings will I be free?
Or will it just put me in a prison, my heart cold and empty.
If I give you my heart, my everything, will I then be free?
Or will it just leave me stranded, out in the stormy seas?

Free to love, or free of love.
What I do, how do I be free?
