Puppy Love

caramels and carousels and silly smiles we shared the last time I stayed over you told me that you cared. We've always been like cousins dancing on the wind I thought that you would always be just another friend The pretty girls all chase you and pull your hair and laugh you always teased and said I had a neck like a giraffe. You've grown so tall and handsome like Adonis in my eyes I never dared to think of you as being my life's prize You say I have an aura a shining in my soul I think you have a fever I fear you've caught a cold. But I will take advantage of your sickened state to say I'll race you to the river for I just might win today!
