How Does It Seem?

"How Does It Seem?"
2010

Could I not know you very well
And still want you like I do
And with a darkened kind of mind
Could I find some light in you
'Cause I need a way to see
What it would take to be
The one you have come to love
And placed no one else above
But still I'm gripped with fear
My doubt is rising still
For there's a void inside my life
That I hope you'd like to fill
But when this is said aloud
It seems to make a foolish sound
So it's better left not said at all
Is the point of view I've found
So won't you prove me wrong
I've grown tired of being right
The days have grown too long
I'm only free inside the night
'Cause that's my time to dream
And you know I dream of you
For this is more than a crush
Tell me, how does it seem to you?
I've seen pictures of your face
But I've labeled them a tease
For I need to feel your skin
If I'm to put my mind at ease
I have wondered of your kiss
And imagined the sweetest taste
Oh, my dreams they serve you well
Darling, I am yours to waste
But this silent state of yours
Oh, it drives me slowly mad
And though I've yet to touch you dear
You're the best I ever had
Now how can this occur
Is what I would say to her
But I think she'd only smile
And offer me a coy denial
But deep down she has to know
That there's nowhere I'd rather go
Than wherever she may be
If she just belonged to me
But I will have my way again
When sleep comes crawling in
And may the pillow catch my head
As you read these words that went unsaid
Then won't you prove me wrong
I've grown tired of being right
The days have grown too long
And I'm only free inside the night
'Cause that's my time to dream
And you know I dream of you
'Cause this is more than a crush
So how does it seem to you?
Oh my darling, how does it seem to you?
