Love Waiting to Bloom
I can hardly get dressed
Cause I don't know what to wear
My heart's fit to bust
Whenever you're there
My mind's in a mess
Whenever you visit
Need someone to kick me in gear
Cause I just can't get with it
My world's in a spin
I'm not even sure I exist
You trump everyone else
You've got me all in a twist
I've got to level with you
You're at the very center
Of my solar system
I'm afraid I'll burn up if I enter
Your sighs are like music
That I long to hear
I'm afraid I'll get hurt
If I get too near
Please give me a sign
If you care for me
I'm standing off to the side
Just waiting to see
Can there be something
Between me and you
Or will my heart be shattered
Before it's all through
Please handle with care
My sad, fragile heart
It would be all too easy
To tear me apart
I want you so much
But I have to know
Do you want me too?
I'll wait and see what you show
