I kept waiting for the perfect moment
where I would tell you how I felt.
It would have been one evening
strolling down a quiet lane.
I would’ve held you close
I would whisper in your ear.
All the things you always known
Would suddenly be crystal clear.
I would’ve said the right words,
not needing a reply
having learnt to love you
without holding you back.
I would’ve been strong enough
to know you’d always be free
And I’d love you without needing you
Knowing you’d be there for me.
It was never the perfect moment.
I was never ready for us
There was always some improvement
I never was good enough.
And because I waited too long
there’s nothing I can say
The window is now closed
I feel you drift away.
