I Find Myself

I knew you were the one,
When I first saw your face.
And after a while,
We started to date.
We ended our conversations with "I Love You"
You would call every evening to check in
I looked forward to seeing your face,
Every morning and every evening.

I miss you here, I miss you now,
Why did they have to do this to us?
We were going fine, but they had to intervene,
And now I find myself crying,
Crying myself to sleep.

I found myself waiting,
Waiting for you: my one and only . . .
But you never came.
At home there was a call,
A call from you.
We wouldn't be able to see each other,
Only weekends could I see your face,
That face that stays in my dreams.

I miss you here, I miss you now,
Why did they have to do this to us?
We were going fine, but they had to intervene,
And now I find myself crying,
Crying myself to sleep.

Is this what they call forbidden love?
Why does it hurt so much?
Just 'cause it's forbidden, doesn't mean we can't.
We'll show them
We'll teach them not to intervene.

We meet each other at the edge of town
With your car ready and full of gas
There's money and clothes in the car
And we take one last look at the town,
The town that told us we couldn't.

I see you here, I see you now.
We don't care what they think.
We're going down the road to our future,
And now I find myself smiling,
Smiling 'cause now you're by my side.
