Prisoner of You...

I don't even know you
And I already love you…
Just a few words were enough
To melt down my heart
And now I can't stop thinking of you
Now I can't just forget your smile
Now I can't just forget your sweet smile
Now I can't just forget the sweet tone of your skin
Now I can't just forget that light in your eyes
Now I can't just forget all of you…
And I barely know you…

And you don't even know me
You have never seen me…
What will you think?
What will you feel?
Will you smile back at me
As you see me for the first time?
Or will you be afraid of what you find?
Will you smile and then hug me
Or will you shy away and turn back?
Will you open your heart
And invite me in?
Or will you close the doors
And leave me to beg on the steps…
Would you leave me outside?

I can't even explain it
You came to my life so suddenly
You took me by surprise
And in one single unforgettable moment
You took my heart completely…
You tore down all the walls
Left me with no defense
And then I could only surrender
Now I'm a prisoner
A prisoner of you…

As much as I try it
I just can't break free of you now…
There comes days that I seem to forget you
Then I see you again, so beautiful…
And that feeling hits me like a hammer
It feels so good for a while
Feels like I'm in a sweet dream
And I don't want to wake up
But then I realize
That I'm caged inside my own heart
Trapped and caught in the webs of this feeling
And then you look at me
And you don't even notice it…

I tried hard to forget you
To let you go of my thoughts
But I just couldn't do it…
You are so beautiful
You are so unique
And yet you are so simple
That you took over my heart
Little by little it happened
That I didn't even notice
And then one day it was all yours…

Now my heart tells me to love you
But for some reason my mind says no to
My heart says to tell you all of it
But my mind says not to
My heart says to dive in
But my mind tells me I'll just fall on my face
And that you'll push me away
That you'll keep me away
Because you don't love me
Because you don't even know me
At least not the real me…
You see me and say hello
But you don't know who I am inside…

So you just keep me here
Trapped inside this cage
Inside my own heart
A prisoner of you
And you don't even notice it…
And so I'm just another face…
And so I suffer
For how long now?

Will you ever look me in the eye
And know who I am?
And know what I feel?
Will you ever love me
And let me know it?
Will you ever free me?
Or will I always be
A prisoner of you?
