Why I Hold You So Tight

For Bre

You’re so beautiful that I am in awe of you,
I can’t find enough ways to tell that to you.
From the sparkle in your deep brown eyes,
Even when I’ve had to see them cry.
To the tenderness in your touch,
Sometimes the heat becomes too much.
 
It’s why I hold you so tight,
For you I’ll put up the biggest fight.
It’s why I squeeze your hand so much,
Because I just can’t get enough of your touch.
It’s why sometimes I hold on so strong,
Because it just might not last too long.
 
I find so much comfort in your presence,
As if you come straight from the heavens.
I find so much exhilaration in your embrace,
My heart starts pumping like it’s in a race.
I find so much of you in my thoughts each day,
I can’t seem to run out of things to say.
 
It’s why I hold you so tight,
For you I’ll put up the biggest fight.
It’s why I squeeze your hand so much,
Because I just can’t get enough of your touch.
It’s why sometimes I hold on so strong,
Because it just might not last too long.
 
I have such passion for this thing,
I want to buy you that ring.
I have such love for you,
I’ve been nothing but true.
I have such desire for us,
Sometimes I am consumed by the lust.
 
It’s why I hold you so tight,
For you I’ll put up the biggest fight.
It’s why I squeeze your hand so much,
Because I just can’t get enough of your touch.
It’s why sometimes I hold on so strong,
Because it just might not last too long.
 
When I fall asleep it’s you I want to hold,
Without you my bed is so damn cold.
I want to wake up to hear you breathing,
Wake up feeling the rhythm of your heart beating.
I want to wake up to kiss your soft skin,
Catching a faint scent of you making me want to sin.
 
It’s why I hold you so tight,
For you I’ll put up the biggest fight.
It’s why I squeeze your hand so much,
Because I just can’t get enough of your touch.
It’s why sometimes I hold on so strong,
Because it just might not last too long.
 
I never want this thing we have to end,
I just don’t think that I would mend.
You will never find another love this strong,
What we have we can’t go wrong.
For you I would lay down my life,
I would make you a happy wife.
 
It’s why I hold you so tight,
For you I’ll put up the biggest fight.
It’s why I squeeze your hand so much,
Because I just can’t get enough of your touch.
It’s why sometimes I hold on so strong,
Because it just might not last too long.
 
So you can tell all the others to leave you alone,
Tell them you’ve found a love all your own.
They can wait all they want to,
But I will never give up on you.
