Your Fool

As I lay with you tonight
My heart feels full
Each time I try to sleep
My eyes won't close

You make my heart race
Just by existing
I smile as you snore
As you talk in your sleep

I feel like I can tell you anything
That you'll support me no matter what
You compliment me all the time
You show me and tell me I'm enough

I want to spend so much time with you
My gut tells me we have time for years
I really want to open up to you deeply
My problem is my previous experience

Each day, I fall a little more for you
I think that's what scares me the most
The last time I was in free fall
I ended up literally losing it all

You've put your heart on the line
You've been there every single day
You've never made me feel bad
In fact, you've brought me back to okay

I see how hard you've been trying
How much you've let yourself take the fall
I promise I'll be here to catch you
You won't touch the ground at all

I'll hold on to you tight
Even if you're inches from the cement
I'm not gonna let you drop
I couldn't bare myself if I did

You look at me with passion in your eyes
As if I'm a goddess from above
You hold me like no other
All through the night

You're the type of man...
That doesn't lie to me, even if it's small
You're the type of man...
That is going to catch my fall

You hold my hand on the sidewalk
You share with me what's yours
You think of me in big moments
You make me feel adored

I heard it best from someone else
Maybe the truth is I'm a fool
This time I hope you prove me wrong
I hope you truly love me, too

That's right, I finally know
You're the man of my dreams
I love you, Duane
More than my heart believes
