Be That Fool
I've been thinking about true love
 Lately
 Wondering if I'll ever find it.
 I've been daydreaming about you
 Lately
 Hoping you'll someday find me.
 I just wanted you to know
 I've never seen eyes more kind
 Than your eyes
 I've never heard a voice more welcoming
 Than your voice
 And
 Dare I say
 I'm terribly afraid 
 That your heart's spoken for
 That you don't see me that way
 That someone better and much, much prettier
 Will come skipping along.
 I've been trying to distract myself
 But my mind just comes right back to you
 I keep coming back to you.
 And I've seen your wandering gaze.
 I've seen your eyes
 --your lovely eyes--
 lingering on me
 And I can't help but smile
 And hope
 And wish, wish, wish
 On every twinkling star.
 I hope you know what you're doing to me,
 Turning me into a sentimental, superstitious fool,
 Making me smile like an idiot,
 Making me sing like some crazy mockingbird,
 Making and breaking my heart
 Every time you look at me.
 Every
 Single
 Time.
 I wish I could tell you.
 I wish I had some way to let you know
 How I feel.
 I wish I had some way to tell
 How you feel,
 If I really want to know.
 But until then
 I'm willing to be that fool
 I'm willing to wear that idiotic smile
 I'm willing to sing that crazy song
 If only 
 To see your lingering eyes
 On me.
