All The While – Written July 1999 (Aged 24)

All The While

you make me smile
and,
all the while
these feelings grow strong
i would wait for hours
pick the petals off imaginary flowers

you made me think
i would wait for days
these feelings grow strong
now it will not be long

you make me smile
and,
all the while
these feelings grow strong
they almost keep me going
knowing that you are there

you make me laugh
with your quirky humour
and cute little thoughts
i will confirm the rumour
you make me smile
and,
all the while
these feelings grow strong




James Garratt – July 1999
