XVlll

Tonight 
Would have been the night 
I mustered the courage to tell you exactly how I feel 
The energy I have reserved for you 
Would have finally been revealed 
The words I shared materialized into something you could have touched
Someone you could have loved 
I now know what awaits me down this road 
Every path I travel leads me to you 
I am now prepared for the detours 
Caution signs I no longer mind 
Slowing down did not mean our love had to stop 
It meant to ensure our safety I should have took my time 
And enjoyed the ride with you
