the first time

by Amy Miles

the first time i saw you i was afraid to look

the first time i met you i was afraid to speak

the first i spoke i was afraid you weren't listening

the first time i felt feeling for you i was afraid to reveal them

but now that i have revealed them i am afraid you don't feel the same way

then you tell me were better off as "friends" it broke my heart

But know as I learn that you have feelings for me also

I had the courage to ask you out and you said Maybe I am so Happy

and i hope you say yes

for in my eyes and the others we are meant to be

so what maybe your answer after the flirting and fights we are still bound

together...so what may become of us do you know.
