To have you with me

Although I am really scared
to get hurt again
there are nothing stopping me
to miss you.

Sometimes you give me heartaches
and other times you inspire me
and just so easily
you really know me

and the facts remain
that I love you more and more
and the being away
cuts both of us to pieces.

During the night you are in my dreams
and with the awakening
it’s as if you lie against me
and I will give almost anything
to have you with me.
