Selective Memory
You have this way of catching my eye
Of stealing my attention
And the empty space in my mind
You have this way of speeding up my heart
When I want it to be calm
The way you look at me
With that gleam in your eyes
The feel of your touch
Sending shivers down my spine
You have a way of convincing me
The words you say
The flattery and the charm
The excuses and the coverups
I know the truth
And yet I believe you
You are not mine to hold
Or to kiss or touch
You have another to hold and kiss and touch
I may be wrong
For feeling this way
I may be wrong
When I think that you feel it too
I may be wrong
But every time you look at me
I forget
