Us

What about us 
  that's something that pops in my head everyday
  I know nothings changed
  I know we both still feel it
  I almost forgot how hard your
  heart beated against mines 
  and how hard mines beated in return
  back than when we first began it was so natural
  so easy to just feel. 
  But everyone's watching
  Disapproving of our relationship
  that's why we let things fall apart
  that's why the "US" became just friends
  But when you look at me 
  the way I look at you
  My heart still jumps when you enter a room
  I don't think it will ever stop
  not until we quit ignoring this fire
  the one that burns deep within me
  I can't feed it any oxygen so it can grow
  cause that might be dangerous 
  But I know that it's there
  I know that it won't disappear
  Even when I get red faced mad 
  The "US" in me and you 
  will always keep me tune in
  waiting for the station to play 
  our song. 
  Waiting for our time to come. 
   Waiting for you to say the word.
         US. I will never let go.
