Pretty Boy
This songfic is based upon a song by M2M on their Shades of Purple cd. Buy it. Listen to this song. It is great and truly powerful in its simplicity.
This song is for every teeney-bopper (myself included) who ever was and ever will be. It's okay, let it out. I'm sure there are a bunch of people who feel like the girl in the lyrics does. For me, this songs' lyrics are directed from a female fan to a male singer. Yes, he is part of a boy-band.
Okay, I've chatted enough...No, hang on a sec..Melody's thoughts have been itallisized and lyrics are left alone. Now you can go on and read away...
VERSE 1
I lie awake at night
I know I should be sleeping, but I can't
See things in black and white
I know you and I were meant to be
I've only got you inside my mind
Your gentle smile, your caring glance, just the way you speak
You know you have made me blind
I turn over in my bed and long to talk to you, the way you talk to me
VERSE 2
I lie awake and pray
Please, Dear Lord, let me get a chance to talk to him
That you will look my way
Even though I'm in the highest level, please, let him see the sign I made...especially for him
I have all this longing in my heart
Please, Lord, give me this one chance
I knew it right from the start
I knew from the first day I saw him
CHORUS
Oh my pretty pretty boy I love you
Like I never ever loved no one before you
Pretty pretty boy of mine
Just tell me you love me too
Oh my pretty pretty boy
I need you
Oh my pretty pretty boy I do
Let me inside
Make me stay right beside you
VERSE 3
I used to write your name
Melody, stop that scribble! That's what Mamma used to tell me all the time
And put it in a frame
She never knew of the frame behind your calendar on the wall
And sometime I think I hear you call
I'll be your Melody, just call my name
Right from my bedroom wall
I smile at your framed face, smiling back at me
VERSE 4
You stay a little while
I'll make it the best time of your life
And touch me with your smile
So innocent and pure!
And what can I say to make you mine
I wouldn't have enough time in the world to tell you what you mean to me
To reach out for you in time
Please, Lord, help me get to him!
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Oh pretty boy
Say you love me too
CHORUS* * *
Melody.
One face, one hope, one dream among thousands...lost in a sea of faces, hundreds and thousands of equally eager faces.
Faces that are ironically lost in the blazing lights that shine upon the Pretty, pretty boy(s) who can't see them back.
I'm not sure if this is what M2M meant in their lyrics, but it was screaming this to me. I know that these guys aren't all innocent like Melody thinks, but it is what millions (can I say millions?) of young girls think. I dunno, don't get me wrong. I'm not dissing boybands or any guy in general. This fic is just something I'd been toying around with in my mind and decided to free up some memory by letting it loose.
I'll go home now!
