Love of My Life (Demo)

I've never been so happy in my life, let's keep it this way
But when the curtains fall, my bones begin to rattle and shake
It's not a lack of trust, I just get stuck inside this cage
Every single time I notice that you've looked away

And I know you're good
A stand up guy
You take my breath away every time we lock eyes
And I know we're cool
I just have
A flood of memories that sometimes hit me like a flashback

I get so terrified when you're not around
That there's somebody cooler that you might've found
And that's the kinda thing puts me on the ground
It leaves me breathless
Baby, I can't help it
You just might be the love of my life

We can go the distance, I know we can make it if we try
But I know my heart will break a bit more every time
It's time to go home for months, and we'll have to say goodbye
I know it's not forever but thinking of it makes me feel like

We're doing good
We're doing fine
But every now and then, a little piece of me dies
You're just so cool
And so fucking kind
Sometimes I feel I don't deserve your light

I'm so fucking scared that I'll be hopping on my flight
And you'll be going home to another guy
It's an everyday battle that I constantly fight
Lay my head on my pillow, acid pouring out my eyes
You just might be the love of my life

And one day I'll be closer with your parents
We'll be talking marriage
I just hope you're aware it's
Such a fragile thing
This love we have
And sometimes it may sting
For good and bad
But I'm doing my best
In working out
All the things I often laugh about

And I know we're good
You're a stand up guy
But I still stay on guard
For the warning signs
But I love you so much
It hurts my chest
They'll call us crazy
But fuck the rest
Call me back
When you get home
I'll be on standby
By the phone

'Cause every time I think about you, my heart could explode
You're the one I want to be with forevermore
And it was always something I fought to ignore
Until you knocked at my door
I still get scared that one of us will walk the line
One obtains the piece they always tried to find
The other will be left for dead at the red light
I envision it, paralyzed
'Cause I just know that I could be the love of your life
