I look at you from afar each day
And it makes my heart happy and gay
But how I wish I could be with you
Even just one foot away will do.
I prayed each night for a chance
To know your name and to touch your hand
And all I want is to be your friend
Our friendship, from everything, I'll defend.
For all my prayers, an answer came
You approached me, and asked for my name
I was so shocked, I dropped my mouth
And stuttered my name, with a doubt.
We became friends, just like I wished
I fell in love with you, yet I chose to dismiss
The feelings that I have, and have kept from you
For I know that you can't love me too
You love someone, and it's not me
And I'm aware, she makes you happy
And so I guess, I have to be contented
Of being a friend, who secretly loves you, till the end.
