Hope is a waking dream just as pain or failure is a waking nightmare.<br /> - Calla Andrew Gilbert


Verse 1:
I woke up yesterday morning
With someone on my mind
Guess who?
Yup. It was you.
And you’ll be surprised to find

Chorus:

You are my love

The other half to my heart

Ill love you forever and always

And we’ll never ever be apart

Somehow you have caught me

In a spell with your eyes

Yes, you and your eyes

The ones that took me by surprise

Verse 2:
Sometimes I get sad
When you are not around
Because you are my soul
And you don’t even have to make a sound
Sometimes I fear
When you are not near
I feel lost in a crowd
Asking what is this all about

Chorus

Verse3:
I know you have never seen
This side of me before
So I wrote this silly song
With the butterflies singing along
To show you how I feel
And everything that’s on my mind
I’ve opened up myself
So come take a look inside

Chorus

You took me by surprise
You took me
You took me
You took me by surprise
You took me
You took me

This song was written and copyrighted by me for my best friend. She always tells me that i throw around the phrase "I love you" like its nothing. I probably do but the one person i am positive i dont misuse it on is her... I love you.
