After this long hard journey

Location

After this long hard journey
I've found a place to rest
I guess the place I was looking for
Was right here with the best

Butterflies invade my body
And something ties my tongue
I'm trying to save my reckless heart
But the fact is, I'm still young

I have all the time in the world
To think about mistakes I've made
I can't believe I was stupid enough
To think death was an even trade

I'm finally done with all the lying
I'm done with all the sad
I've finally escaped the hurt I felt
I've never been so glad

To forgive and forget is the plan
And this they'd never see
Because they don't feel the joy
That you're giving me

We're more than friends, and I love that
Talking late into the morn
But the faster I fall,the scarier
I'm terrified of being torn

But 1+1=2
At least that's what they say
And once the clouds blow far away
It gives you brighter days

It's far too late to put up walls
I've already let you in
So please don't take advantage
I'm already worn so thin

I'm not the same as every girl
But this you already know
I have a past,a history
I wish I didn't so..

But I like you and you like me
Maybe you're my missing half
From all out things In common
Especially loving to laugh

But nothing lasts FORVER
But I hope this time sure does
I prefer how I am now
Opposed to who I was

So if everything goes downhill
And if this thing hits an end
Just know I don't want to be nothing
I'd rather us be friends

Im living in the here and now though
Making every memory last
Because I know by your side
Life's sure to be a blast
