YOU

When I close my eyes     
To sleep at night 
It's you I see 
Holding me tight. 

Your arms so strong 
You make me feel safe 
The only thing wrong 
Someone else has your place. 

I know it is wrong 
To be dreaming of you 
But my heart just can't stop 
These feelings so true. 

The timing was wrong 
I met you too late 
A promise was made 
To determine my fate. 

Why weren't you there 
When I had the chance 
I will always regret 
Not getting this dance. 

And so for now 
I will settle for two 
But in my heart 
It will always be you.
