I loved you for the longest time
Way before I knew who you were
Well before I knew what love was
My heart ached and yearned for a love like yours... A love like ours
I craved and begged and ached for it
Along the road I gave up
I accepted whatever scraps life offered
Beggars can't be choosers
And I chose to accept what I got
As the saying goes "we accept the love we think we deserve"
You've shown me I deserve more than I ever knew I was worth
Not to discredit it all
Every bump in the road, every depression, every manic episode put me right in your headlights
But I won't run, I won't jump, I won't budge unless it ends with you in my embrace
My sweetest dreams in human flesh
Bless you for falling for a fool like me
