Happiness: Only One Mistake Away

All night long I stared at the ceiling.
The walls were closing in.
I wonder what I do with this feeling.
I hate that I've committed this sin.

When we shared that kiss,
I knew then that it was wrong.
But I'm scared of what I might miss,
I've wanted this for so long.

Do I close my eyes and pretend it was a dream?
Do I drift to sleep and pretend I don't care?
Maybe its not what it seems,
but that just wouldn't be fair.

The emotions are there and I know that they're real.
I just don't know what I'm suppose to do.
I don't know what I'm suppose to feel.
It makes it hard for me to breathe,
it makes it hard for me to move.

I tell her just to wait.
Give it a little longer,
Its in the hands of fate.
But I can't make her sit and wonder.

Life's too short.
We have no guarantees.
I don't know how long she can afford,
And it brings me to my knees.

Her happiness will keep me moving.
Even if its not with me.
But the sound of Us is soothing,
I ask God to let it be.

Now I can only watch,
enjoy the ride.
Life without her wouldn't be much,
I have to make her mine.
