Close But Not Close Enough

The one I love is standing here Ahead and to my right, so near Not near enough, can't ever be Until the day that she's with me A poem I can write with ease To play for her is such a breeze The bluebird's nest inside my heart? I keep it clean while we're apart It's furnished with a comfy bed A fluffy pillow for her head One chair for two sits right nearby Facing towards the western sky So every day I live I'll get To sit with her and watch sunsets I'll be content, just her and I The bluebird and the guitar fly She carries me upon her back I steer her on a preplanned track Then when we land back at the start If she looks up she'll see a heart
