The Bait

Your sweet gestures are like bait
How long shall I have to wait?

I can hear you sing like a bird
I want to catch you but it’s hard

You fly away to another tree
Do you love me is a mystery

I love you but I am afraid
You are like a pretty mermaid

If I say I love you baby
You may disappear in the sea

So I crave and wait for you to say
I love you from the very first day
