You gazed into my eyes I stared back got frightened then turned away You asked " what's wrong "I replied with nothingBrushed it off as if the memory was already hazy I told myself that your a mere boy searching for a girl to call yours Maybe that is why I'm so afraid of you Because everyone I have ever loved has leftSee when you stared into mine I got soooo nervous I got so nervous that I couldn't do anything but glance slightly into yours And that glance was slight heaven So honey don't drag me into a love so strong I'm driven to hell I asked God to heal a heart break && he healed it with you What a miracle You've chosen to stay over everything Maybe that is what scares me the most That you care enough I'm used to runners baby but you your tough You've helped me walk miles through forest fires The past burns me, it burns us We're so haunted by memories we can't even jog so we turn into flamesLook at you Your so beautiful You inspire me to do betterTo be better My fire had came to a slow burn With you it has now sizzled back to it's full potential Though you need to understand I will always be " THE GIRL " The girl with no emotions The girl who doesn't care The girl afraid to love because all she ever had left her there The girl struggling to find herself  The girl struggling to loveI could never escape her so here's a secret I never share I will be the girl && " THE GIRL" will always be me
