Unrequited Love
My heart yearns for you
Every single day
They think it's all a joke
But what can I say
I never really gave it much thought
But I always knew it was there
Growing inside me
Day by day
If you could see what you've done to me
You would be surprised
To know that a stubborn girl like me
Has become what I've become
I don't know how to tell you this
I don't know if you even care
It's your eyes and smile I miss
I search for it everywhere
I don't know if you know how I feel
The more I think about it
It gets more obvious
Your heart is made of steel
I try to get a grip on my heart
Every time you look at me
But it's my hope you always thwart
regardless of what you see in me
I have no hope for this unrequited love
Doomed to be forever one-sided
I only pray to the gods above
That you find someone who'll keep you safe and guided
I ask for nothing more from you
Because you won't hear me
But please know I'll always remember you
You'll always be in my heart and memory
