Finally Our Chance

- originally written May 24, 2007 -

Once I wore shackles that bound me
They held me back, would never let us be
As much as I loved you, I had to remain silent
And the tearing in my soul was ever so violent

But I have labored hard, broken every chain
With all the life in me, I fought through the strain
Now nothing could ever hold us apart but my fear
But the fact that you're nowhere to be found is so severe

Once I had to let you pass me by without a word
I had to stop myself from having my feelings heard
Now all of that has changed, I have made it through
And now all I want is to be able to live my life with you

Tell me where I can find you, where have you gone
Because there is no way my feelings can be withdrawn
Or will you come and find me, make it easy for me
Will I find you just around the corner, waiting on one knee

Please, somehow, I need to know the answer real soon
I've been looking everywhere, I even searched the moon
I know I will wait through all the good and bad weather
But don't you see that this is finally our chance to be together
