How can I tell you how I feel?
I see you on the porch
Watching me as I set out

I smile at you
I don’t wish to be rude
And you blush so sweet

The rosy flush in those creamy cheeks become you
And my heart skips a beat
How can I tell you how I feel
When around you I can barely speak?

The day I first saw you
Standing on the porch as you do now
I knew I was in love

That straw coloured hair
Those gorgeous blue eyes
Those homely curves
And a smile so cute
My heart stopped

I want to talk to you
But for the first time in my life
I’m shy

What would I say?
What would I do?
What if you don’t like me the way I like you?

Then I see you walking
Closer
Closer
I start to panic

Is there something I’ve forgot?
Is there a job for me to do?
Then with the sweetest little smile

You say the one thing
I’ve wanted to say to you
But haven’t had the guts to

“Hello”
