Directions To Your Heart

Nowadays words just don't hold enough feelings
Sometimes I want to tell you how I'm feeling
But I can't express it through words
In contrast to some of the things you've probably heard
I am not the guy to shy away from my past, but to embrace it
We've all done things we aren’t proud of but we can’t erase it
Instead when you face it, you're faced with a decision
To either let it break you or build you
And I choose to yield to your will boo
So whatever you'll have me do, I'll do it
I may lack the affection you need
But don't give up on me yet, class just started
I have all the materials I need, so you can remain unguarded
Playing games are outdated so I'll resort to being truthful
I wish I knew how to love the way that you do
I just lack your instruction
In order for me to function, we’ll base love as the curriculum
You can teach me how to love and we'll keep games to a minimum
Because I found something in you that I should cherish
Having that once in a lifetime feeling of ecstasy you don’t want to perish
See I hit your love under an X in the sand
And that music that used to come from my chest is now coming from your hands
You hold something dear to me, and you can see the fear in me
Every time I rode the love wave I wiped out
Drowning in a sea of regrets that lead to love doubts
But I found my way back and you were my guiding light
Swam through it, and found the sun in the darkest of nights
It’s evident you were heaven sent, Just wonder where you stored your wings
Never thought I'd meet someone who can treat a peasant like he's a king
You cleared my palace sat me down and called it my throne now
I wanted to repay you back I just didn't know how
But I'll learn, I'll read every book, and study every lesson
To return the love you showed me, the product of your affection
I swear I'd overdose on you if you let me, even through the changes
Through every mood: happy, hurt, or hateful and filled with so much anguish
But it’ll be painless, and every day I want you by my side
Always thinking of the first day we let our worlds collide
And how being without you would feel like a fate worse than suicide
Because you have my heart caged in, and it’s quite comfortable
I'd stay in your embrace forever just don't let me go
One thing is certain, I may never be able to love the way that you do
But that’s part of unique the reason that makes you, you
Your special to me, and there's something I'm just realizing
Even if we can't love the same way it doesn't mean we stop trying
You got my heart, no more renting, borrowing or leasing
When I think of us, I relate our ups and downs to the seasons
Though we're young, you've taught me so much and I'll always remember
The beauty of your spring, the warmness of your July, the rain in our fall
And the coldness of December.
Even on the coldest days,
The warm and beautiful ones are just around the corner
So we hold on to each other even tighter when it’s cold

Until the days where it gets warmer.
