counting the days
Reynaldo Torres Jr 1995 (Tx)
Counting the days
The goodbyes have only gotten harder.
Leaving you is leaving my heart behind.
It’s crazy how in short amount of time I never knew what I was missing until our paths crossed .
Now I’m so wrapped up in you, I never wanna know what a day without calling you mine feels like.
It’s even crazier how much I don’t want this to stop, I want to see this through
It tough it’s hard it’s something I don’t like doing but it’s all I’ve known.
Sleepy days and restless nights are my constant addiction.
Ive asked myself why? but the only answer I’ve found is I don’t want to fail .
Ive always been told,
You can live for love or for the money ,But you can’t have both.
You know I’ll always choose your love over anything.
There’s days I wish I could leave ,days I wish I could do it all over.
Im not gonna lie there is times I do get caught up and overwhelmed and want to yell and curse.
I close my eyes and my surroundings stop and a silent pause intervenes cause all I see is your gorgeous face and beautiful smile.
In your arms is all where I wanna be.
And as hard as I try nothing will take me away from where im at but for that moment in time your serenity gives me strength to keep going.
