Two Days

Two days ago I didn’t know you

I didn’t know your face

I didn’t know what would happen to me

At that first discreet embrace.

You came here with a fire

I had never known

And with that fire burned me down

’Till my heart was yours alone.

I had never known the feeling

You brought here when you came

And I could hardly bear the answer

I knew I had to explain.

The throbbing pain inside my head

Was like never before

It showed me all our sweet moments

Before I struck that painful chord.

It made me question why

Why I had to push you away

It made me wilt when I couldn't tell you

I thought of you everyday.

And all I could ever want

Was to kiss you goodnight

To show you how I feel

And to feel that it’s alright.

What I’d give to spend eternity,

Holding you tight

Even if eternity only lasted

Till the red of morning light.

This feeling deep within,

I wish would never end

This feeling deep within me

Alas, is foe as well as friend.

It feels as if it will break me

But from my path cannot bend

And if I don’t find solace

You'll own my heart until the end.

And if you forget me quickly

It’ll tear me apart

But it may be the best thing,

’cause I suffered from the start.

Two days ago I didn't know you

I barely knew your name

Two days ago I didn’t know

I’d never be the same.
