The Right and Wrong of Loving You

I know it's wrong to love you-you'll never love me back
I'll keep dreaming of a day that we will meet
And on that day you will see what my love can bring to you

My love is filled with sweet songs and gentle poems
Things that I already try to give you
But to you, these things are not enough

I wonder sometimes if you ignore them
Put them aside-out of sight, out of mind
And with them, the thoughts of me

But what if you never even think of me,
Never wonder why I care about you so much?
You whom I've never even touched with my satin lips

I long for your loving embrace,
An embrace I could give back to you
One that could lead me into your heart

The two of us could be quite a pair
And I can see us now in my dreams
We'd journey together and learn that things the world can teach

I know you have a lingering respect for life
But what can that respect be if you do not share your time with someone who is living,
One who loves and wants you near?

The more you put me off coldly, the more I want you
To me it's like a game of 'hard to get'
And that game is endless in all that it provokes

Maybe now you understand just how I feel
And I won't be living in my dreams of hypothetical situations
But maybe, just maybe, you are right here next to me...
