Melissa

I see the side of you
That you're afraid to show
I'm sure that you're aware of it
It's not my place to know

But when I look into your eyes
And see things without a word
It makes it that much easier,
For your message to be heard

The pain that you feel right now
Is not what you deserve
Yet, I still watch you running back to him
What purpose does that serve?

Sometimes it's what you need to face the world alone
The greatest moments happen when you're scared and prone
Don't believe the world's against you, give yourself a shot
It won't be long until he's a memory,
And eventually forgot

Melissa,
It's my only thought
For me to give you all my heart
I'd promise you more if only I had it to give

It's too cold to walk the earth in dark
So, if you even feel a spark
The time is now for us to make our mark

I must tell you I am scared
But my heart will not be continually impaired
By my side the world is open to us to be shared

Melissa,
I write this now because I have no words
To tell you all the things you should deserve
I will make up for them in every single way
And if I'm ever given the chance
I would never give it a second glance
You'd be mine forever in true romance

Melissa,
It's my only thought
For me to give you all my heart
I'd promise you more if only I had it to give

It's too cold to walk the earth in dark
So, if you even feel a spark
The time is now for us to make our mark
