Night with M

Head on my shoulder
On I'll read
Look at me
And let me return the gaze
Though I know I'm not the one
Though I know I've got a snowball's chance
Heart on your sleeve,
In your pocket
Show me more
And give me a reason to hope
Though I know she's spoken for
Though I know I'm a friend
Ear to the wall
Of a whisper
Speak up now
And let me know of what you speak.
Though I know I'm not in love
Though I hope I will be
Hand to my heart
In a heartbeat
Promise forever
And try to remember next year.
