I met you unexpectedly, I've never felt this way.
You know that when you look at me, I swoon and start to sway.
I gave you the key to open my heart, and you took it with a smile.
Your lips brushed mine so softly, your eyes on me all the while.
A hand whispers along my cheek, the other strokes my hair.
I forget to breathe as I am locked and drowning in your stare.
My heart gives in, my knees give out, you catch me as I fall.
I cling to you so tightly, so afraid to lose it all.
Our hands are clasped, our eyes are locked, we don't know what's in store.
And as I whisper I love you, you say, I love you more...

&quot;I say what I want to say and do what I want to do. There&#039;s no in between. People will either love you for it or hate you for it. &quot;
