Because Of You
by Starburst
I’ve been in darkness for so long just waiting for the light,
And now that you have come my way, my days don’t seem like nights.

I’m glad I’m finally overcome my fear of the other side,
Thank you for showing me the way, by taking me on this ride.

I’ve never really felt this way about a guy before,
You’ve truly touched me deep inside, you’ve opened, unlocked, the door.

I know it’s nothing serious, but surly it’s a start,
You’ve treated me so equally, I feel it in my heart.

And even if this does not work, I’m glad I’ve had this chance,
To see how great you truly are, even just for a glance.

We never know what’ll come of this, it really just depends,
I’m glad we’re taking the first step, we’re becoming better friends.

With you I never have to guess just how you really feel,
You talk to me about the facts and tell me what’s the deal.

With you I feel so comfortable, like nothing can go wrong,
I get this tingly feeling inside, you sing to me like a song.

The fact that you are older, really did freak me out,
But you treat me like I’m your age, now I’m rid of all my doubts.

I’m trying to live in the moment, by forgetting about the past,
And so far it’s been working, and it’s really been a blast.

So hopefully from this day forth, I’ll know just what to do,
If ever I come across a guy, another guy like you.
