Solitary Thoughts

We're in love
Or so I think
But my thoughts aren't enough
I need to know what she thinks

When she winks
My heart skips a beat
And it makes me wonder
If it happens to her too

She inspires me
She looks heavenly
She's like air to me
She's the love I see

But what's in her head?
What do she think of me?
Do she go to bed
Thinking about me?

Am I like every other guy?
Or am I the special one
Am I that very guy
Who can make her see the sun?

I've given her my heart
But how is she treating it?
I have but one heart
I pray she doesn't play with it

What do she even mean
When she say 'I love you'?
And what do she think I mean
When I say so too?

She can count on me
By the stars I swear
But can I count on her?
Do she even hold me dear?

Have I gone against the grain?
Should I follow my heart or my brain?
'Cause I really want her around me
She looks to me like destiny

She makes my heart to break
But when the sun is up again
For true love's sake
I'll be up to love again
