the longest time

If you said goodbye to me tonight

There would still be music left to write

What else could I do

Im so inspired by you

That hasnt happened for the longest time

Once I thought my innocence was gone

Now I know that happiness goes on

Thats where you found me

When you put your arms around me

I havent been there for the longest time

Im that voice youre hearing in the hall

And the greatest miracle of all

Is how I need you

And how you needed me too

That hasnt happened for the longest time

Maybe this wont last very long

But you feel so right

And I could be wrong

Maybe Ive been hoping too hard

But Ive gone this far

And its more than I hoped for

Who knows how much further we'll go on

Maybe Ill be sorry when youre gone

Ill take my chances

I forgot how nice romance is

I havent been there for the longest time

I had second thoughts at the start

I said to myself

Hold on to your heart

Now I know the woman that you are

Youre wonderful so far

And its more than I hoped for

I dont care what consequence it brings

I have been a fool for lesser things

I want you so bad

I think you ought to know that

I intend to hold you for the longest time

-i ran across this on travies blog. i figured it must be for me... :-) i ♥ you too babes! lol na but travie is the lead singer of Gym Class Heroes. i ve posted one of their song lyrics a while back and another poem he wrote called Quilts. but every now and then he writes something like this and posts it on his own blog so i run along and snatch it and share it with you. i like to read poems like this, by men, because as women we can get so mushy and overly wordy, but guys...sweet and simple. i like this and i hope youre feeling the same things too.
