Daydream Love

You are simply a work of art. I’ve known it from the very start, But you won’t find me hittin’ on ya. For I’m just an old guy With a twinkle in his eye; Happy just to gaze upon ya. My old heart quickens it pace Each time I see your pretty face, A face that every man should see. Sometimes, just for a while, Each time I see you smile, I imagine it's just for me. And, when I hear your voice, For just a moment, I rejoice. Yes, it’s music to these old ears. But more than a work of art, You’re warm and funny and smart. Simply a beautiful person, my dear. Though with you I’m quite smitten, My words are respectfully written; And every word is true. But, if I weren’t so old, If I were better looking and a little bold, I would simply say, “I love you.”
