YOU

When I close my eyes     

To sleep at night 
It's you I see
Holding me tight.

Your arms so strong
You make me feel safe
The only thing wrong
Someone else has your place.

I know it is wrong
To be dreaming of you
But my heart just can't stop
These feelings so true.

The timing was wrong
I met you too late
A promise was made
To determine my fate.

Why weren't you there
When I had the chance
I will always regret
Not getting this dance.

And so for now
I will settle for two
But in my heart
It will always be you.
