Risking it all..

When it comes too matters of the heart I chose long term gratification over short term gains. I trust my instincts enough to know when it's the right time, and the right person, I am willing to risk it all. 

I choose to wait over loving small
Settling is not an option
No half measures 
No temporary pleasures
When the time is right
I'll give it my all

I'll bring with me passion 
fire and flame
One to run wild with
not one to tame
I'll bring with me laughter
fun and joy
Midnight escapes
Adventures ahoy
I wont kill you with kindness
or trick you with lies
Theres a fire that burns brightly
behind these blue eyes

My heart was once captured
and love grew immensely
Took over my head
I felt love so intensely
Stolen moments of pleasure
brought with it such pain
but it taught me I can sing
and dance in the rain

So I'll choose to wait
I'm not in a hurry
My life is full
so I've no need to worry

If the time comes
and it feels right
I'll unlock the key
I relight the fire
I'll welcome love in
I'll feed the desire 

I'd be more than happy 

to give it my all
and take the risk 

of facing a fall

So if you're not sure
then I'm not your one
Don't come and mess with my heart
If you're just after some fun 

I don't want games

I don't want lies

I want someone with passion 

behind their eyes
I chose to wait over loving small
with someone also willing to risk it all
