Analysis of 831
Rachael Bailey 1987 (Okinawa)
I never really knew you
You were just another friend
But as I got to know you
I let my heart unbend
I can not help past memories
They only make me cry
So I have to forget my first love
And give love another try
So I'm falling in love with you
And I'll never let you go
I love you more than anyone
I just had to let you know
And if you ever wonder why
I don't know what I'll say
But I'll never stop loving you
Each and everyday
My feelings for you will never change
Just know my feelings are true and if you don't get but one thing from this please remember that I love you
