the closest thing

you're the words that come out easy

and i am speechless at best. your star it seems to shine above the rest. you're the face before the cameras

the smile i'd like to earn. the closest thing to perfect

in a hollywood to burn. you're the beauty that is deeper

than eyes can merely see. the closest thing to perfect. but the farthest thing from me. i'd love to be

the shoulder that you cry on. i'd love to be

the friend you call when things are great. you're the dream that hasn't ended

and i'm still anxious for rest. your words they seem to hang above my head. you're the bud before the flower

unfurls into full bloom. captivating beauty

but it maybe all too soon. you're the song that writes a story

but leaves a lot to read. the closest thing to perfect

but the farthest thing from me. and like i really deserve a chance to

sit across the table

and tell you that i think you're wonderful. and i think you're something special. i guess this is my only chance to

say i wish i knew you

because i'm sure you're wonderful

if i'd get to know you.
