Shadows of Love

When I look at you
             I see me
         What is this power you have over me
              wishing and praying
              you were mine
         You look at me , and turn away
          Without ever having a word to say
           I think I love you, I don't know yet
            but do you love me, want to make a bet
       How can you see me, What can I do
            I really want to be with you
        Time has passed and still no dice
            are we ever going to feel some rice
         You get me so confused, till I can't think
           I cry so much, till my eyes are pink
          I dreamed of us living the american dream
             one child maybe two
     with smiles on our faces no need to change places
     I heard you got married the other day so I guess there is
     nothing left to say
