Ten Feet Tall

She was simply beautiful   
Her dark brown eyes so magical   
Now she’s got me feeling        
Like I’m ten feet tall
Isn’t love a miracle               
When it begins to call      
Now she’s got me feeling      
Like I’m ten feet tall                




And there’s no doubt about it
I’ve never felt this way
I wanna show the world
Of this love I found today  
I’m feeling like a child             
Just playing like a fool
And this loves’ got me feeling
Like I’m ten feet tall
Yeah’ this loves’ got me feeling
Like I’m ten feet tall




Little flutters rise and fall
On my heart strings gently pull 
Now he’s got me feeling
Like I’m ten feet tall
He’s so adorable               
Got me waiting on his call	
Now he’s got me feeling
Like I’m ten feet tall




And there’s no doubt about it
I’ve never felt this way
I wanna show the world
Of this love I found today  
I’m feeling like a child             
Just playing like a fool
And this loves’ got me feeling
Like I’m ten feet tall
Yeah’ this loves’ got me feeling
Like I’m ten feet tall





In the summer by the pool 
Our first kiss so sensual
Now she’s got me feeling 
Like I’m ten feet tall 
On vacation at the hall
Her sexy dancing really cool     
Now she’s got me feeling 
Like I’m ten feet tall 




And there’s no doubt about it
I’ve never felt this way
I wanna show the world
Of this love that came my way
I’m feeling like a child             
Just playing like a fool
And this loves’ got me feeling
Like I’m ten feet tall
Yeah’ this loves’ got me feeling
Like I’m ten feet tall




With the sweetness in his eyes
These white clouds were drifting by
Now he’s got me feeling
Like I could touch the sky
I’ve never been so happy 
He’s the apple of my eye
Now he’s got me feeling
Like I could touch the sky





And there’s no doubt about it
I’ve never felt this way
I wanna show the world
Of this love that came my way
I’m feeling like a child            
Just playing like a fool
And this love got me feeling
Like I’m ten feet tall
Yeah’ this love got me feeling
Like I’m ten feet tall

When both of you feel like this, sure it is a love reciprocal. Your refrain- 'like I'm ten feet tall' adds beauty and romantic intensity to the poem. Dear Kevin, stay ten feet tall. All the Best.
