Can't Take My Eyes Off You

I know that the bridges that I’ve burned

Along the way

Have left me with these walls and these scars

That won’t go away

And opening up has always been the hardest thing

Until you came

So lay here beside me just hold me and don’t let go

This feelin’ I’m feelin’ is somethin’ I’ve never known

And I just can’t take my eyes off you

And I just can’t take my eyes off you

I love when you tell me that I’m pretty

When I just wake up

And I love how you tease me when I’m moody

But it’s never too much

I’m falling fast but the truth is I’m not scared at all

You climbed my walls

So lay here beside me just hold me and don’t let go

This feelin’ I’m feelin’ is somethin’ I’ve never known

And I just can’t take my eyes off you

And I just can’t take my eyes off you

Off you

Off you

So lay here beside me just hold me and don’t let go

This feelin’ I’m feelin’ is somethin’ I’ve never known

And I just can’t take my eyes off you

And I just can’t take my eyes off you

Runaway Bride

So, I was watching Runaway Bride last night and I couldn't help but see that there are definite similarities. Well, for the exception that I don't ever make it to the wedding. Always giving my heart out and trying to be something that I'm not and well, that hasn't worked out very well at all.

Starting in February I made a fresh start. I promised to be just me, take it or leave it. Through my past I've learned that some people bring out the worst in you. I promised that if I started to see that happen I would change the situation. So far, I'm happier than I have been in ages because there aren't any knock down drag out fights.

Back to Runaway Bride to close out this entry.
my favorite quote from the whole movie:

Ike Graham: [on the perfect proposal] Look, I guarantee there'll be tough times. I guarantee that at some point, one or both of us is gonna want to get out of this thing. But I also guarantee that if I don't ask you to be mine, I'll regret it for the rest of my life, because I know, in my heart, you're the only one for me.

Every time Richard Gere delivers this line I tear up a little bit.

yipeee

we could have met at anytime
we didn't
and I can't say how thankful I am for that

... <3

I think that possibly, maybe I'm falling for you
Yes theres a chance that I've fallen quite hard over you.
I've seen the paths that your eyes wander down
I want to come too
I think that possibly, maybe I'm falling for you
No one understands me quite like you do
Through all of the shadowy corners of me
I never knew just what it was about this old coffee shop
I love so much
All of the while I never knew
I never knew just what it was about this old coffee shop
I love so much
All of the while I never knew
I think that possibly, maybe I'm falling for you
Yes theres a chance that I've fallen quite hard over you.
I've seen the waters that make your eyes shine
Now I'm shining too
Because oh because
I've fallen quite hard over you
If I didn't know you, I'd rather not know
If I couldn't have you, I'd rather be alone
I never knew just what it was about this old coffee shop
I love so much
All of the while I never knew
I never knew just what it was about this old coffee shop
I love so much
All of the while, I never knew
All of the while , all of the while
It was you

in the morning light

last night, you put my heart at ease. the truth is, i worry that this is on a run away course for disaster. then, you confide your fear...even if it was only temporary, and i realize we share so many similar thoughts. it seems to me that every time these feelings are so different, so cliche to say i've never been here but so true. in you i put my trust, because i know that you won't abuse it. i'll let go of this fear and let it sink. when i'm with you i remember how to swim, so being in over my head just isn't the problem that i thought it might be. let it go where it will go, the promise for a new direction in my life hasn't failed me yet; i don't have the right to question it now.

ready or not

there are things that I'm not ready to tell

feelings I'm not ready to feel

my heart jumps when you cross my mind

you are the sweetest thing that has ever happened to me

I just don't want to trip

because I will fall

and the landing will hurt

I'm not prepared for what you do to me

this is surreal

like a fairytale

swept off my feet, as if my heart had wings

how often we blame the wrong party

but how do I trust that this won't hurt

like it has every other time

this is the door that's closed

that I'm not really ready to open

especially on day 48

but, where does it go from here

if I just keep holding on to this

The Way I Am

If you were falling, then I would catch you.
You need a light, I'd find a match.
Cuz I love the way you say good morning.
And you take me the way I am.
If you are chilly, here take my sweater.
Your head is aching, I'll make it better.
Cuz I love the way you call me baby.
And you take me the way I am.
I'd buy you Rogaine if you start losing all your hair.
Sew on patches to all you tear.
Cuz I love you more than I could ever promise.
And you take me the way I am.
You take me the way I am.
You take me the way I am.
