I remember being ten And watching "You Only Live Twice" with my grandfather I knew then, That day, I wanted to be James Bond. Every time me and my friends would play, They'd be Spider-Man or Batman... But me, I'd always be Agent 007 (And somehow win) I wanted so bad to be so tough So smooth, So witty. But I fell face first into the realization that I would always sadly be a double-oh nothing. Ten years later, A lot has changed, yet nothing at all. I could never be 007. I show too much emotion. Hurt too often. But I have found my one true Bond Girl. And I still hold tight to that dream That one day I'll wake up and I'll be Bond. James Bond
