Take a look at my life, surely I've got nought to complain about

I'm widely a success, there's no reason to pout

One would say there's little I'm missing

But, as I digress, I must confess, aside from all my conquests

There is a treasure lying just out of sight

The final chapter of my tale I'm yet to write

I've tried ev'ry ploy I know to win your heart, dear

But boy, I can't even start - with ev'ry hint I make, I never seem to break below the surface

Still I'm hoping some day soon the tide will turn - time and time again I picture the moment when you learn of all this yearning

So grand; just the simple thought of holding your hand

And yet you evade me - things never go to plan

I'd give the world just to be near to you

Funny how I freeze with fear ev'ry time I have a chance to reveal my love is true

Sure it might sound crazy that of all there is to worry about

I'm here obsessing over each scenario - just can't let it go

Ev'ry way I could blow each chance of proving that I'm

Worthy of a moment of your precious time

If I were to win your heart, each feat would dwindle in its shadow

All of heaven's bells would chime

I've sailed the ocean, climbed the highest heights

Flown 'round the world in a plane, walked the streets aglow with neon lights

Still I'd trade it all for just one tender moment with you - I must be crazy

Hazy dreams of holding you; It's true there's nothing I would rather do

So please, answer my plea; tell me you see the two of us together

There's nothing else I desire, your vision sets my soul on fire

With each and ev'ry glance; won't you

Come on over here, darling and fulfil my only wish before my lonely heart ceases to scheme

You know only you can save me from falling apart at the seams

Life has so much to give to lovers who allow themselves to dream - won't you give me a chance
