Secret Admirer

I can't seem to describe how I feel when you feel down
all I know is all I wanna do is turn your day around
 
and though to me much of your past remains a mystery
the fact is you past's your past, its only history
 
and I think it's funny, the strong feelings that I have for you
where I'd do anything I can to help you when your feeling blue
 
I wish I had made more of myself, my life, throughout the years
Wish I could be your knight in shining armor sent to wipe away all of your tears
 
I wish I had the means and the ability
to show you, everyday, how beautiful you are to me
 
and though I know you might not feel the same way
I have a feeling, my feeling's here to stay
 
Maybe someday, if you're not already scooped up
I'll bring you a coffee, we can sit and talk and have a cup
 
and maybe I'll get, that first and final chance
to ask that gorgeous girl to dance
 
but if that never happens, you can add it as a pipe dream
and I'll still be here for you no matter how far I seem
 
and I'll just keep hoping you find what you deserve
and until you ask me for it, my judgment I'll reserve

This is very good. I enjoyed it a lot. Those opening lines are killer in my opinion.
