I had something so perfect but i had to set it free,
Because you said "promise not to fall in love with me"
But something about you captured my heart,
Even though i knew not to right from the start,
Because there'd come a time you wouldn't be here
But nothing's stronger than love, not even fear
So i did all i could and tried to keep up down my end
But i wanted so much more than to be just your friend
There was so much i saw when i looked in your eyes
There was love, hope and faith, no regrets, no lies
When i held onto your hand my heart skipped a beat
I knew right then and there that with you i'm complete
You asked me to keep a promise, but i couldn't
For me to do something that we both knew i wouldn't
To not fall in love is something i couldn't do
Because my life changed when i met you
You gave me a reason to wake up everyday
You made me want to change my ways
You gave me the push to become a better me
You made me not just look but actually see
The beauty in each and in every day
So "i love you" is all that is left for me to say
