All I Ever Wanted

All I’ve ever wanted,

Was someone to love,

A friend I could trust,

A voice urging me on.

No one has ever been there,

I’ve never experienced a kiss,

The sweet, sweet love everyone shares,

It escapes me somehow.

You are my best friend,

You give a shoulder to cry on,

I give advice,

We have always been there for eachother.

Now things are different,

We’ve grown so close,

I want to ask you,

But will that destroy us?

You’re so beautiful, so perfect,

I think it will work, you and me,

I think we could be more,

If we took this final step...

I decided not to ask,

And now we’re closer than we ever could have been,

All I’ve ever wanted,

I’ve found in you.
