Unpredictably, by bedazzled Subscribe to rss feed for bedazzled

It makes me choke, it gets hard to breathe,
The ghost emotions are hard to relieve.
It's been a long time since I dwelled in that place,
But the reminders still leave a mask on my face.

It makes me wonder, churns each past tense word,
And I can still see it now even though it's blurred.
The sobs still echo through time to me,
Still play among the shadows of old misery.

And God I still remember so clear, so strong,
The hatred I held for you, the hatred so wrong.
I understand why, and I understand how,
It's just so incredible that I love you now.

Sweetie, it's the old story of pretending to despise,
Using hatred as love's common disguise.
It's so beautiful to have made it through,
So perfect to know that you love me too.

We took our time, I thought you'd never open your eyes,
To see your hold over me, your power to mesmerise.
Three years away from when I couldn't stand you near,
Denying my emotions because of the pain I couldn't bear.

Now I've never felt happiness like this before,
Opened up in full the capacity to adore.
Here we are now so very unpredictably,
It all makes sense when I can call you baby.
