I never knew I wanted someone like you
Until out of the blue, you came along
And pursued me just long enough
I feel you did it all the right way
Wish for myself, I could say the same
Now I’m judging others based on your qualities

Since now you’re all I can manage to concentrate
I feel you’ve been the one for me that got away
And because you left we would fade
Now I wait for the glorious day
That you make your way back to me
Please let it be just eventually, I’m here

We seemed to be from two different worlds
One reason I held out on getting to know you
I couldn’t imagine you enjoying my company
And I was just too fragile to be used so soon
I didn’t see much need in having time misused
For either of us, assuming we’d be doomed

When I gave it a chance, you had to go
Would you have stayed for me, I don’t know
If we only began earlier on though
And now you always go “ghost”
I have no way to know if it’s personal
But I’m still here waiting to go further

The reasons I can’t forget are a cinch
You are smart and also ambitious
Rare to find anyone goal oriented
Even harder to find common sense
But you surely have plenty of all this
You gone is the only flaw I don’t get

Most of all, besides physical attraction
Your smile and eyes are holding me tight
You could always make me laugh and smile
I hope you know your own wonderful qualities
And can’t forget, loved that you didn’t care less
About any going one with sporting events

I miss your stubbornness and sarcasm
Even though you drove me up the wall
I will also miss yours and my tickle fights
Even though you’d win all the time
Good luck to you, even if not mutual
Whatever I did, I can assure, I won’t forgive

I won’t mean to do this but I know I may
Hold out for my “hello” acknowledgement
Only for now, goodbye “Prince Phillip”
I wish I could sleep another century
Your messed up Sleeping Beauty
Country boy, let me be your cutie
