My Core

How can I show you my feelings,
When it’s been so long?
Always too many miles apart
We’re like strangers to us now
Trying to rediscover a relationship
Learning that when the past is gone, it’s gone forever
Time’s too cruel to the old
And we ain’t getting any younger
Trying to stay strong through stormy weather
But know I’m still your weak little child

[i]I don’t want to wait till we’re dead
To say I love you
And I don’t want to wait till the end
To let you know I care
All you did for me
Will always be my core
Every single step
I treat them like my first
Taking everything you said
And keeping them so close

Home was never the peaceful place I seen in movies
I grew up out of the dirt
Fought for everything I had
Still fighting for my worth
This fight torn us two apart
I was too focused on my life
You never could protect me like I wanted
But I don’t blame you, and I’ve forgiven you
Because I understand it wasn’t easy

I don’t want to wait till we’re dead
To say I love you
And I don’t want to wait till the end
To let you know I care
All you did for me
Will always be my core
Every single step
I treat them like my first
Taking everything you said
And keeping them so close

It’s been a long time
But this don’t have to be the last time
Don’t be a stranger!
You mean so much to me
Don’t want to lose out on memories
See me more often!
Never too affectionate
Never the one’s to show too many emotions
But tonight I can’t help it…
I will forever love you
