As East to West

 

I wish I knew how to talk to you

and I find it rather strange

I’m usually one to speak my mind

so I don’t understand the change

Everything I’d like to say

starts feeling out of place

But I need to express this before I go

while we’re still face to face

 

If you are the beauty, then I am the beast

If you were the west side, I’d be the east

I think you are the morning, when day is so fresh and new

When I count my blessings, the very first one is you.

And I can’t imagine life without you

 

If you think about me, you won’t say,

leaving me in the dark.

I guess that’s ok but I crave to know

who you’re holding in your heart.

Everyone needs everyone else

it’s not wise to go it alone

Though I may not see the fruit here and now,

love is the seed I have sown.
