find myself falling

i don’t know where you came from
but i know where this is going
i could find myself falling in love tonight

we’re talking more than normal
our words are passing friendship standards
my heart is beating at the speed of light

when are we going to let ourselves fall in love
how long till our shallow words rise above
i know what you’re thinking, you can read my mind
so let’s let ourselves fall in love tonight

you’re all i think about
i analyze your every move
i think you’re perfect in every way

i’m running out of reasons
for a friendly night out on the town
truth is i just have to see you again

when are we going to let ourselves fall in love
how long till our shallow words rise above
i know what you’re thinking, you can read my mind
so let’s let ourselves fall in love tonight

one and only


i didn’t know her name
when she made me pray
when she waved at me like she
was in a parade

like an angel touching down
she stood out from the crowd
i wanted to follow her home
a girl like that should never be alone

i knew that girl would be
my one and only
i knew that girl would be
my one and only

so i spent my time on her
my investment yielded no return
i tore her picture from my wall
but i found no flame to burn

then she saw me standing there
guess she noticed my stare
then she spoke the words that made all right
do you think we could go out tonight?

so i treated her like royalty
and she up and left the throne
i, the jester, executed
with, “can’t you just leave me alone?”

my friends say there’s always more
lie about the line outside the door
they speak of fish in a big blue sea
but i know that’s not for me

Oh she will always be
my one and only.

Anyone


i forgot to ask you one thing
but now it’s gone from me
lets just talk some time away
though the words are empty

ok you got me – i’m found out
my excuse was just no good
but hear me out – before you shout
i’m just doing what i should

anyone would call you up
just to hear your voice
anyone would follow you
like they didn’t have a choice
i’m just like all the rest
when all the rest- they find the best

i always thought you knew
anyone would fall in love with you

where do we go from here
lets leave it all unspoken
you won’t talk and i keep
my heart from being broken

oh – you had to go and look up
with the answer in your eyes
let me share my motive
you look too surprised

anyone would call you up
just to hear your voice
anyone would follow you
like they didn’t have a choice
i’m just like all the rest
when all the rest – they find the best

i always thought you knew
anyone would fall in love with you

sittin’ with an angel

i’m sittin’ with an angel
stood up by my friends
waiting for some signal
here we go again

skip ahead to dinner
anything but a date
i listen for 2 hours
till we agree it’s getting late

don’t you know i prayed for this to happen
now my answers sittin’ here
with all my feelings for her
when it’s real – i only feel
fear.

we pay and leave for home
still can’t believe the truth
i glance at her smile and then
i have my proof

a blessing has been given me
its coming to and end
we say our goodbyes to the night
and leave closer friends

don’t you know i prayed for this to happen
now my answers sittin’ here
with all my feelings for her
when it’s real – i only feel…
fear.

don’t compromise

 


never thought i’d start a journey
like the one i’m going through
never knew i could dream so big
till i met you

but i saw deep in your eyes
a fire beneath the blue
you say you only want
someone to marry you
but don’t compromise
for some of those guys
hold on – it can’t be far
to someone who loves you
the way you are
honestly, i can’t understand
why you’re still alone
you’re a beauty, but beyond
you’re the sweetest girl i’ve known

i can’t offer answers
i won’t share my dream
lets just things aren’t as hopeless
as they seem
don’t compromise
for some of those guys
just go to the well with your jar
God’s sending someone to meet you
right where you are

 

just being a friend


you must know i love you
my hidden signals must clear
but your silence is bewildering
that’s your answer I fear

i gave you my heart some time ago
wanting yours in return
but i can’t fathom your rejection
it’s a lesson i can’t afford to learn

when will you see you love me
when will my wandering end
you’ll run to my arms and I can stop
just being a friend

i was doing just fine tonight
till you walked through the door
now i find it hard to concentrate
as you stroll across the floor

well i steal quick glances across the room
you notice and my heart explodes
i say, “Hello” and “How are you”
but what i really want to know
