The sun kisses my lashes
My eyes flicker from its rays
A smile so true, washes my face
I am thinking of love
A love so strong and real
One big love, one that holds me
Never daring to let me go
It can't remain just a dream
There must be Cupid somewhere
Near me soon, someday
I've never loved or been loved
Not true, real and strong
So just for now I lie here
Still and quiet, waiting for Cupid
Awaiting the sound of the arrow
As it strikes into my heart
Again the sun kisses my lashes
Like my long awaited love
It's warmth gently surrounds me
Making me feel relaxed and safe
So for now I shall be silent
For what will be will come
