another self deception i just started to say;
if he comes to see me i'll just send him away;
i really don't belong after all.
peering past my curtains i can see that he's here;
looking in my mirror i see nothing but fear;
i don't want to worry but he's getting too near;
i guess i don't deserve him after all.
standing face to face with him he looks past my shame;
standing here amazed that he just loves me the same;
standing heart to heart with him he whispers my name;
still, i don't deserve him after all.
love was always something that i could never see,
but he knows this girl in me who i feared i'd never be.
he puts his dreams and hope and faith and courage in me;
rejected by most, ignored by the rest;
i see me at my worst, he only sees my best.
i'm afraid he'll leave me; he just says we won't part.
holding me he reaches in and pulls at my heart.
his touch is so electric that it gives me a start,
maybe i belong after all.
i had vowed with all my strength to not let him in.
i felt so defeated; i just knew i'd never win.
he said it doesn't matter; he doesn't care who i've been.
we belong to each other;
we were meant for each other;
we belong to each other after all.
