Honesty

Baby, you gotta understand me right now,

I've had my dreams broken,

And it hurts with every heart beat,

Having my eyes wide open.



He loved me, treated me right, no problems,

I left because of me,

Got scared of the "happily ever after"

So I broke his heart to be free.



I still think about him everyday,

Not knowing whether to feel guilty,

I feel cold and heartless,

So I'm making this plea...



I want a family and a husband to love,

With a career to guide my way,

But not yet, no thoughts of the future,

I just want to feel my love everyday.



You're still young, baby, so much to learn,

I don't want your dreams in the way,

Don't you make the same mistake,

Then wonder why you ran away.



I love you, I'll give you my world,

Knowing you love me too,

Just feel our love strengthen every breath,

Then life will follow us through.
