As I read the heart-felt words of so many years gone by
I feel the love you have inside
All along I thought you knew
Of just what I feel for you
I thought that I was getting through
I've been trapped, inside these walls of preconceived responsibilities
And what I thought was expected of me
I should have realized
I should have said it out loud
Every time I saw your brilliance
Every time that I felt proud
I've been lost in the dark
I forgot to breathe
I was caught up in
The burn
I regret its been so long
Just put your arms around me
I'm trying hard to make it right
I've forgiven all the wrong
You are the only one
We're starting over, moving on
I've been trapped, inside these walls of preconceived responsibilities
And what I thought was expected of me
I should have realized
I should have said it out loud
Every time I saw your brilliance
Every time that I felt proud
I've been lost in the dark
I forgot to breathe
I was caught up in
The burn
I'll be beside you till the end
You hold my heart, you are my best friend
There's comfort when I feel you near me
And all the ways that you complete me
I've been trapped, inside these walls of preconceived responsibilities
And what I thought was expected of me
I should have realized
I should have said it out loud
Every time I saw your brilliance
Every time that I felt proud
I've been lost in the dark
I forgot to breathe
I was caught up in
The burn
I've been lost in the dark
I forgot to breathe
I was caught up in
The burn
