When I Realized

I started working on this about 4 months ago...

When I woke up today, all I wanted to say was I love you
Oh I love you,

For everything you do that makes me smile, it makes me free,
I know now you'd never leave my side, you'd never let me feel less important

When I realized you were the one for me, it set me free, it made me feel, like the machines in this place can't pull us apart

Could you pull this apart?
Would anything change how you felt the day you said goodbye, when you said I can't do this?

You set me free, you said go away,
But I'm here to stay, for my love for you is not temporary or wearing thin,
Let me in, let me in, let me free, so I can run with our love and we can fly like kites until the end of time,

When I sleep I dream of you, and when I pray, I think of you, and ask how could it be this way, that you could ever feel to say, goodbye, goodbye,

You let me be, the man I needed to be, but I'm broken and though your blind eyes you can't see, that I'm still the same man I was back then, and if I could do it, I'd do again, so I could feel your lips on mine because they set me free, they set me free, they set me free

When I realized you were gone I asked myself what have I done
I can still feel you in my heart,
