There you are looking so pretty, inside so incredibly sweet
such a beautiful woman, a sincere pleasure to meet
The respect I have for you only continues to grow
as do my feelings for you of which you don’t know

I feel the prescense of your warmth within my heart
how could I share it with you, where do I start?
I enjoy every moment of all the times we have shared
and am very thankful for how much you have cared

I wish there were a way for our two souls to unite
for I believe a relationship between us would ignite
into something so wonderful, honest and sincere
with many happy memories year after year

You are so much a part of my life I wish I could have your hand
how special you make me feel, I need you to understand
Your happiness and security are something I want to help you find
I want to show the whole world that to me you are one of a kind

I want to be the one for you when you need someone the most
and wish I were the one in your arms being held close
These thoughts of you I have are certain to last forever
because I want so badly to make everything better

How can I tell you without pushing you away
I must keep these thoughts to myself every day
I like to think that sometime we could be together
to have and to hold and to leave you never

I hope you hear me and I hope you realize
how many times you’ve put tears in my eyes
It pains me sometimes that you can’t feel the same
but if it is anyone’s fault, I am to blame
For I should have known this is how it is to be
that you can never be more than a friend to me
Still I hope and will continue to keep wishing
because I know without you how much I’m missing
