How do I go on any longer with this silly one act play?
My resolve keeps my emotions in check, quiet and still
Afraid, I am, to tell you, there's just nothing more to say
What my head won't attempt here, my heart certainly will
When I see you, and hear you speak , my spirits soar
I feel so alive, so invincible and wonderfully blessed
But I cannot tell you that it is you, darling, that I adore
What you mean to me can't ever easily be expressed
You don't realize how it is, that you make my heart sing
With that special magic, that you and only you possess
I'd be willing to give up all possessions....everything
If only you could feel as I do, and even though I regress
But I must keep it hid, disguise true nature of myself
For fear that I might just lose you forever, oh, my dear
And so, these feelings must ever kept upon the shelf
Though this unrequited love brings me pain, severe
Is it fair that someone should suffer in this way?
When there is such passion that's burning in their heart
Such tragic notions go on everywhere, most every day
No ever accused someone in love of being very smart
It is that sweet blindness and total ignorance of sense
That makes the world the lovely, intriguing place it be
To have the one you love, with such feelings so intense
Mightier than any mountain, so much deeper than any sea
That is what a fool's heart feels, my darling, yes, it's true
If fate smiles upon me someday and if e'er I get my wish
Then this longing and sweet pain was all worth it, for you
Cast caution to the wind, may fortune favour the foolish!
