Young and Innocent

When we were young and innocent,
I never imagined we would grow up to fall in love.
I didn't think that one day you would steal my heart
Or that people would say "they're lucky" when they look at us.

I thought you would always be my best friend
And nothing more.
But as the years passed by,
My feelings for you kept getting harder and harder to ignore.

I don't want to ruin our friendship,
But I can't live without you.
I fell head over heels,
Even when I tried not to.

I tried to hide my feelings.
I kept telling myself I was just being stupid.
Why would you be interested in me?
I was just your dorky friend.

But I began getting tired of lying to myself.
Now I'm trying to love you the best I can.
I never imagined this would happen
When we were young and innocent.
