Wallflower 04:09
You're a wallflower Set to bloom I watch you As you cross the room Even though I don't know your name I do know that I'm not the same Do you know You're the fairest of the fair Have you been informed Are you currently aware How I wish That we could meet But my legs won't move I'm confined to my seat As you notice my stare I laugh to myself and know That a girl like you could never care For a boy like me
2.
When you smiled at me My heart skipped three beats Because I never thought We would get to meet When you spoke The choir swelled The most beautiful voice To ever be held I tip-toed around you At the the start Unknowing of what You would do to my heart When you spoke The choir swelled The most beautiful voice To ever be held Then one day I saw You with him And I closed the door On what could have been When you spoke The choir swelled The most beautiful voice To ever be held Though there's not Anything I can do Please know that I was happy to meet you

States Apart 02:37
With all the things I left behind You're the one thing on my mind You're the girl I miss the most You're smile haunts me just like a ghost And though I find us states apart You are always in my heart With all the things I left unsaid You're the only thought in my head And with the secret that I keep I'll share it with you when we fall asleep And though I find us states apart You are always in my heart With all the kind words that you wrote I hold near and dear you're tender note And as I sit here in the sand I would much rather hold your hand And though I find us states apart You are always in my heart
4.
Dearly beloved, It's been awhile I miss your laugh and I miss your smile Dearly beloved, I hope you know why I die inside Every time you cry Dearly beloved, Why can't you see That wherever you are Is where I want to be Dearly beloved, I'm dropping you a line So long as you're here Everything will turn out fine Dearly beloved, Just let it be You mean everything to me

Cold Call 03:04
6.
I'm falling for you and I don't know what to do We know what's right But maybe we could both be wrong I want to tell you how I feel But it's hard to say if it's real We know what's right But maybe we could both be wrong If I tell you you might go I'm not sure if I should let you know We know what's right But maybe we could both be wrong Through the phone This is all I can do I love you
7.
Green Girl 03:26
I always felt jaded Until you became My favorite shade of green A green girl That means the World to me Why do you do this to yourself? So much trouble underneath your skin You don't even know where to begin and You'll never speak a word of it Why do you do this to yourself? We both have our scars But they're only par For the course of things to come Why do you do this to yourself?
8.
Whisper 03:18
It's only been a year But I truly fear That you won't want to see me I'll stand here and patiently wait Outside that old school gate That's where I'll be Then you're slowly walking trough I make my way to you "Green Girl, where are you going?" You look at me with eyes so wide Like at any moment you'll run and hide And leave without ever knowing But you come to me and we embrace Oh how I've missed your pretty face Everything will be all right In this overcrowded space Everything falls into place For a moment we're the only people here I whisper I missed you You tell me you missed me too And you hold me tighter Would it be all right If you came to see me tonight?
9.
Drive Away 03:28
I'm waiting on you The truth is I love you so Just one night to get it right Do you really have to go? Do you have to drive away Why can't I make you stay? I'll sing and play this song for you To show you what's inside But if out hands touch is that too much Will you have to run and hide? I'm holding on so tight I refuse to let you go Reluctantly I loosen up my hold If I blink I'll miss Our first kiss and How you feel so cold
10.
Fade 03:14
You have to do what's best for you It's just hard to believe it's true That there's nothing I can do You'll go on your way Slowly day by day I will surely fade I know this is goodbye I cannot tell a lie This will eat me alive I'll be left with all my plans I know I'm not the better man I know why you have to do this I understand Even though you have to go Green Girl, I love you so

Last Vows 01:30

about

"I can think of no more emotionally damaging loss than to be turned down by someone whom you love very much. A person who not only turns you down, but almost immediately will marry the victor. What a bitter blow that is."
- Charles Schulz

I started this for her but finished it for me.
