Story Behind The Song

I long time friend that I often think about being with romantically

Song Description

Trying desperately to convince a long time friend that she and I are perfect for each other in every way. After half a lifetime looking for; but meeting the wrong people; we were meant for each other all along.

Lyrics

I'm overdue on a mystery
Of how it might be if you and I could fall in love
These days the answer is clear to me
Like it was to Noah when he finally saw the dove

We're both so different that's easy to see
And we've both gone our separate ways
But recently life has seemed so short
With a lifetime erased in a day, so why waste one more day

Sometimes it's hard when we go so long
Without seeing each other or talking on the phone
But it's even worse when I know where you are
And who you're with when I'm home all alone

I know I hurt you with things that I say
But I do not mean to offend
We need to see things in a different way
In a life where we're much more than friends
Oh if we were to be more than friends

We just might see a whole lifetime of laughter and sunshine
Believing without a doubt love is here to stay

And you'll never long cause my words and my songs
They're my gift and they'll lift you
Up high every night every day

All our lives we've been circling around
Where is she? where has he gone?

Well I was looking for you, you were looking for me
Strange how we both didn't know

You'd be sure about it then I'd be quick to doubt it
Why can't I ever let go

That's when our strength would be tested and obstacles bested
How foolish are those who never even try
Trust what I say and I'll prove every day
That nothing in this world could ever break us down
