Analysis of Time



I look at you,and
wonder why,I can't
be the one there
by your side.
You say you love her
and I know you do,but
still I wonder if you
have a clue.
I love you more than
you'll ever know,more
than anything,I let it
show,but time will tell
if we're meant to be.So,
I'll just have to wait
and see.
