Stare
1 : to look fixedly often with wide-open eyes
2 : to look at with a searching or earnest gaze
The person I was looking fixedly at with wide-open eyes and a searching and earnest gaze at the time I wrote this song was Josh, but damn if it doesn't apply to pretty much every guy I ever had a crush on.
Casi, Patrick and I actually made a music video of this, that was fun to make, but is kinda painful to watch... Oh well. Better luck next time.
Special thanks to Joseph Rienstra, who helped me rewrite the chords to the chorus. It's much more interesting now!

I wanna be able to show you that I care
I wanna be able to love you
But all I can do now is stare
I wanna be able to tell you
All the things I love about you
Each and every day
I wanna be able to tell you
Without scaring you away
But it's hard to know
Just how to show things I feel inside
When everytime I show interest
You run away and hide
I wanna be able to touch you
Caress you cheek
and run my fingers through your hair
I wanna be able to touch you
but right now I'm just too scared
And it's hard to know
Just how to show things I feel inside
When everytime I show interest
You run away and hide
Cause I wanna be able to love you
I wanna be able to show you that I care
I wanna be able to love you
But all I can do now is stare
Yeah all I can do now is stare
mmmmmmmmm-mm-mm
