You Deserve More Than Me
Your eyes, I feel them looking
Eternally they peer away
I wish that I could capture them
I wish, I hope, I pray
But no, they look not for me
They look for someone, true
With a love to give well, always
That is what, is meant for you
Your lips and tongue, they call out
I hear them on the breeze
A voice that’s like no other
That brings me to my knees
But no, they call not to me
Your voice calls for someone, true
May he have the love you seek, my dear
That is what, is meant for you
Your hands, they reach to touch so much
With eagerness, they wish to feel
Their softness is wonderfully caressing
They can make a broken heart heal
But no, they reach not for me
They feel for that someone who
Can touch you as you touch him
That is what, is meant for you
