So it all began 10 years ago
We met just as friends
Felt something
Tried to be lovers
Was good but I wasn't  
I walked away,

Couldn't drag you down
You had everything
I had  nothing
Loved you but had to let you grow

Never in a million years
Would I think you would
Ring up my phone
Ask to see me again

Me with a child
Who would love me now
Yet you didn't see that
You saw the me, you did
All them years ago

Take us to Maccies
Little treat for catch up
To feel just the same
You lean in
Butterflies

Now 3 years later
You ask the question
Would I be yours forever
How could I say no

Now to be having your child
Is this a dream
Someone pinch me

Why do you want me to fail
Why can't I be happy
Why do you want to take my son

Hes all I have
You messed up
But you want to take him
He can't fix your mistakes
He can't mend the wounds

Hes my success
My pride my joy
I raised him
With no help from you

They say

So many years have passed
Yet nothing has changed
Many relationships have gone yet now have lasted
Maybe there's a reason
Maybe its fate
Telling us

Don't hold back
Follow your heart
Or maybe its time
To close the book

Yet I cant close the book
Everytime I see or hear your voice
I fall,
Not bad but back into the thought
That something could be real
Is it real, or is it just something we hold onto.

You say I love you
And I say I love you too
Does that mean its real,
Or does that just mean words

You say I want to be there
But will it ever happen
Will it be to late
Will I have sed I do

Will I have to make a choice
Childhood lover
Or real life
Could it be real
In love with someone

I've never met
Doesn't that happen in fairy tales
Could this be my change at
Meeting Prince charming

I am happy
Yet you hold me back
I try and run free
Yet these chains hold me
Dragging me down
To the darkness
I've tried to escape
Years and years
Been in these chains
Holding the walls together
With bones and flesh
Still never good enough
To be set free
Its like a trick
You see the light
Then snap
Vanish .......

I never meant to give you a I'll child
Yet you still walk in the opposite road
Not looking in his direction
What did he do to do
You break him heart
Everyday thinking he did wrong

I'm only 22
So why am I taking on everything
Day to day
Trying to make everyone smile
Hitting breaking point
I throw money,gifts love and hugs
Yet nothing fixed these wounds
Feel defeated once again
Where is the happy family I remember

.
I'm opening up to a stranger
They just sit and watch
While you open the door
Of darkness
That you have been slamming shut
For year I thought
I'm just messed up
I'll never fit in
Why am I in this world

But now I see that
The door needs to open
To fight through the darkness
And into the light
To a brand new world
One that's waiting for me
With a smile upon it's face
I can survive and so can you
