The First Step

There’s nothing I can do to make you feel
the love I’m feeling now.
There’s no way that I can make you see
me different than the way you see me now.
I just wish that I could be something
more than just your friend.
So, I’ve got to ask you darling,
Have you got any plans?

We could go out tonight and dance the night away.
Then later with your head on my shoulder
we could say the things that only lovers say.
But you know your face so pretty, lighted by the moon.
And there’s nowhere I’d rather be
than lying there right next to you.

I know that love’s a process,
and I know I’m ready to take the first step.
And I know that love’s a promise,
a promise between two that needs to be kept.
Please reassure me that my aim is not in vain.
Please tell me that you’ll be the gold to my rainbow,
the Ithaca to my love odyssey.

Lying there right next to you.
Lying there right next to you.
Lying there right next to you.
