Someone Like You

I try to verbalize the reason why I find you charming and so disarming.
But my words escape me running away on this runaway train of thought
if only bravery could be bought
cuz I think it would be funny
if you could only know all the ways I think of you
and all the ways that I don't.
would you turn and walk away
would you turn around and run
or would you smile as if to say not knowing's half the fun.
But I've been waiting for someone like you
and I'm hoping that you've been waiting for someone like me too.
You're self-assured I'm unnerved
when you speak I can almost taste your words
that drip like honey from your lips.
When you pass me by
I'm aching I end up staring
gripped by your demeanor
with just a glance to hold me over a
nd I think it would be priceless
if you could only know all the ways I think of you
and all the ways that I don't
would you turn and walk away
would you turn around and run
or would you smile as if to say not knowing's half the fun
but I've been waiting for someone like you
and I'm hoping that you've been waiting for someone like me too
