Day to Day...
You make me feel like an idiot, an imbisile, and a fool
Without evening knowing it how can you be so cruel?
Seeing you stops my heart � even my breath
But this is a secret I must keep kept
Because I don�t know how you�d feel
If I cracked open my heart and soul to be revealed
I don�t want to risk the rejection you might give
Because I might crumble to pieces � I doubt I�d live
You smile and think we�re just friends
But deep down inside of me there�s a pain that never ends
I hate to say you cause this because you don�t know it�s you
And nothing will ever come of this I know that�s true
Because my feelings are hidden � a secret you can�t see
Because I mean nothing and you mean the world to me
In a heartbeat you brighten my day
And when you�re not around the skies turn grey
Please, God, tell me what I should do
Should I act upon my feelings or see what�s true
Because I doubt he feels the same as me
Or I could just ask him to find out and see
I should be so lucky to get one that makes me smile
To get someone that makes my heart flutter a million miles
Who can clear away any storm -
And make me feel safe and warm
Love is a fickle thing
That can tear you apart at the seams
Or it can float you away
And you, my dear love change that for me from day to day.
