I want
I want to wrap my arms around you,
I want to call you mine,
I want to show you off to the world, not just stay at home.
I want to spend my time with you.
I want to laugh and cry with you.
I want to listen, and sing to you
I want to gaze into your loving eyes
I don't care what others think of me.
As long as you let me make you happy.
I know I don't have a chance, with you
But I will still always love you.
