My fingers tingle when I think of you
Heartbeat unsteady, breathing erratic.
I’m sure I look stupid when I think of you
With my silly little smile, and wide dreamy eyes.
My nights end with staring at your picture
The image of your face occupies my waking thoughts.
Oh, how much I want you to be mine!
To hold you in my arms and feel your warmth.
Oh, how much I long to kiss your lips!
To be by your side morning, noon and night,
Walking with you and holding your hand,
And telling the whole world that you are mine.
The sound of your laughter warms my heart
The scent of your fragrance fills my soul.
Your wide, bright smile entrances my senses
Your unassuming beauty drives me crazy.
You are beautiful.
By God, you are beautiful!
I never knew I could feel this much until I found you.
Never knew I could be so out of control
You are so amazing, it breaks my heart,
With your beauty and kindness, and smartness and sweetness.
You make me want to be better to be deserving of you
Because I love you, and that's the truth
And no matter what happens, I will love you forever.
