Everyday

We tried hard to hold it back
Was something we couldn't do
There was no other way to express it
Except to say that I love you

Tried hard to bite our tongue so soon
But through our words love did extend
Many times it slipped from our lips
I love you, you are my best friend

We would shy away and giggle
Smitten like we were teenagers again
Finding in each other intense feelings
I love you was fitting to explain

With more mature eyes and perceptive
We knew this wasn't just childs play
It was a profound connection forming
The kind of love that comes to stay

There was a chance we wouldn't know
We had to tell each other this way
I will repeat it to you in every moment
I feel it stronger each and every day
