Chris (to C.N.)
by Melanie A BennettWonders thinking
Stars blink twinkling
Looking up on this cool spring night
Wishing I'd like it if you held me tight
I'd love to want your love
I'd love to love your touch
Why are my standards set so high
When I need someone like you so much?
You are so sweet to me
That scares me so much more
I'm not used to guys paying my way
Or holding open the door
I've been working on my heart
Since I first wrote you that letter
I don't want to keep you from other girls
Cause you deserve so much better
There is so much about me
That you don't even know
And I'm not sure, that by knowing these things
Just how far you'd want this to go
Please give me time to realize
Just how wonderful you are
And then suddenly I'll know
That you have succeeded in stealing my heart
I know that when I finally wake up
And when I finally see
I'll turn around to only find out
That you've slipped away from me
