I Want You To Know

Jessica Gross

I know you’ll never feel the same Or get butterflies when you hear my name But I want you to know I know you’ll never gaze into my eyes Or hold my hand as we look at the skies but I want you to know I know you’ll never think of me when you first awake And I know when you see me your knees don’t shake But I want you to know I get butterflies when you’re around I adore your name and its sound And I want you to know I could gaze into your eyes all day I want to hold your hand but know what you’ll say And I want you to know I think of you when I awaken I’ve nearly stumbled with every step I’ve taken And I want you to know I love you And I don’t know what to do
