Eclipsed Moon

You’re unaware of my presence when we’re placed adjacently
But in a crowd of people your gorgeous smile is all I see
I contemplate winning you over somehow
Although I’m crushed knowing we’ll never be more than we are right now
Deep down I recognize that you’re way out of my league
Trying to fight it leads me to a state of immense fatigue
I’m no competition to those cooler than me
Smarter than me / Not to mention better looking than me
I could never make you laugh as loud as they can
Or make you smile as big for such a long time span
It’s impossible for me to match their value
Nothing I say or do would ever bring me closer to you

Others may be able to give you material things
Plus temporarily satisfy your wildest dreams
But I would wake up at dawn / Tell you good morning
Accompanied with sweet sentences without the slightest warning
So that you always wake up with a conspicuous glow
Nobody should even have to ask why / They’ll already know
At night I would make sure I’m the last voice you hear
And whisper the reasons you’re special to me in your ear
I wouldn’t have to talk to or see anyone else, but you
I’d have a devotion to you that I wouldn’t argue
I adore you to a point where it’s kind of extreme
I welcome the intensity of my precise feelings

Say I’m a little bit crazy / A little obsessed
But I crave the warmth of your caress
I know we belong together
Convincing you of the same would unite us forever
We might be opposites but joined as one
We would form an unbreakable union

You’re similar to the sun and I’m an eclipsed moon
There are a million stars, but only one you
And I’m grateful that you are in my view
However, the distance between us will always be too far
Your touch is a gift I can never receive
For forever and more you will remain out of my reach
My adoration towards you may be uninvited passion
But you have an extraordinary sparkle
It’s remarkable, yet so gentle

Say I’m a little bit crazy / A little obsessed
But I crave the warmth of your caress
I know we belong together
Convincing you of the same would unite us forever
We might be opposites but joined as one
We would form an unbreakable union
