Emerald

Gonna write you a song, though I don’t have the words

The timing might be wrong, but I have never been so sure

Of anything in my life, I’m hanging on to your every word

You make me forget about the strife, it’s as if you have heard

All of my deepest desires untold to all the public ears

My heart is so on fire, but the flame slowly appeared

You are so beautiful

I can’t help but stare

Was your birth a miracle?

You’re perfect, everything is there

Behind your green eyes

Lies the nicest mind

And on your face the brightest smile

Completes your manner mild

Please, won’t you stay a while?

  

Gonna write you a poem because I have the heart

Skiing down this slalom, leaving tracks like works of art

The river is flowing strong in our lives, our hearts, minds, and in our souls

I don’t just wanna get along, wanna stay and grow old

All of my deepest emotions soon to be laid on the table

Won’t make a commotion, not expecting a fable

You are so beautiful

I can’t help but stare

Was your birth a miracle?

You’re perfect, everything is there

Behind your green eyes

Lies the nicest mind

And on your face the brightest smile

Completes your manner mild

Please, won’t you stay a while

I am a diamond, albeit in the rough

You are an emerald, polished way more than enough

I am ugly and unfinished, just hewn

But you are so beautiful, you’ll be sold soon

So I have one thing that I need to ask you

Is it alright if I try to love you?

You are so beautiful

I can’t help but stare

Was your birth a miracle?

You’re perfect, everything is there

Behind your green eyes

Lies the nicest mind

And on your face the brightest smile

Completes your manner mild

Please, won’t you stay a while
