I'm the consummate romantic,
consumed by the concept of Love.
You might think I' m just pedantic,
or there's bats in my belfry above.
Still I believe in flowers
and those candlelight dinners for two,
holding hands and talking for hours,
'stead of "Hey
what'syersignwannascrew?"
And I guess I'm sort of a nester,
'cause I like to get cozy that way.
I'm funny, but not the Court Jester,
though sometimes I do like to play.
Sometimes I'm a bit of a tease,
but never intentionally hurt.
I'm quick to get down on my knees;
were you cold I'd give you my shirt.
I like to give gifts and turn poems,
into love songs to sing in your ear.
I'm the bulldog who'd never roam,
tho' occasionally like a cold beer.
Being with you's my fav'rite pastime,
and not on a long-distance phone.
Loving, but no clinging grapevine,
tho'I really hate sleeping alone.
Old-fashioned, but not chauvinistic,
yes, I think God made woman to love,
to nurture and share- it's not mystic
just romantic like two turtle doves.

These feelings deep down in my heart,
What is the matter with me?
Ever since I saw you that day in the park,
Nothing's been the same in me.
I feel as if my heart is crying,
It's killing me inside.
But no matter what, I keep on trying,
For something I try to hide.
If only you knew how I felt,
Maybe things would be different between us.
Do you remember when we first met,
How your smile won my trust.
I would make things wrong to right.
I feel things would be different this time,
If only you knew.
There are three little words I want to say,
But these words scare me to death.
People told me this will lead the way,
I sob under each breath.
If only you knew how I felt,
Maybe things would be easier for me.
My heart feels like it's going to melt,
And die with the autumn leaves.
The three little words I want to say,
Confuse me in so many ways.
I am confused so much, you'll never understand,
Do you even remember who I am?
Emotions in my heart are killing me,
I wish I didn't feel this way.
But you are too pretty to ignore,
I still hate the words I want to say.
If only you knew how I felt,
Maybe things would be different for me.
I wish I could turn back the hands of time,
And be able to see you one more time.
If only you knew, these three little words,
Maybe things would be different for me and you too.
The words my heart aches to say are,
"I love you".

He's the one I adore
He's never a bore,
When he says such
lovely things,
I want him even more.
He's the kind of Guy
that wont tell a lie
and always gets by,
He's the kind of Man
that always takes
his stand.
Why He's My Sweet,
Sexy, Lushes, Wonderfully
Fantastic Hunk
Of A Man.
Where Is He now?
I haven't a clue this
Is so tru
For all I know he hasn't
heard a word
but he's my cure
for sure.
