When I told you I loved you I was not picking out rings.

When I told you I loved you I was not looking for an invitation to become domestic.

When I told you I loved you I was not expecting you to say it back.

 

When I told you I loved you I wanted you to know that you were special.

When I told you I loved you I wanted you to see that you are worthy of being loved.

When I told you I loved you I saw a smile crease the corners of your mouth.

When I told you I loved you I wanted you to know that I cared for you.

When I told you I loved you I wanted you to know I was there for you.

When I told you I loved you I wanted you to know that there was nothing I wouldn’t do for you within my power.

When I told you I loved you I wanted you to feel safe in my arms.

 

When I told you I loved you I never thought I would loose you.

When I told you I loved you I never thought I would be saying it for the last time.

When I told you I loved you I never imagined you driving away.

 

When I told you I loved you, I meant it.
