that guy over there

that guy over there with his beautiful eyes staring at me
and all the marvelous things about him begin bewitching me

that guy over there with the moonlight around his presence
fascinate me so much i can't explain with common sense

he's just standing there in his silence, as if he's waiting for something i don't know.
it seems like he's there for me to erase my sadness and sorrow.
i can't stop wondering why my heart beats awkwardly every time our eyes meet
how i feel safe, knowing that he's there, just around the corner of the street.

that guy over there approaching me with the sheltered gaze
tells me not to worry cause he'll always be there for me to embrace
whenever i'm feeling sad, or upset, or angry, or just occasionally tired
he tries his best to bring the smile onto my face and then holds me tight



i look back on all the things he has said and done
and i know,

i'm in love with that guy over there.
