Can't Stop

I could think of a thousand things,
And you would still be there,
In the back of my thoughts,
Knowing how much I care,

I could think of sliver moons,
Or flying birds,
But instead I think of,
Those longing words,

I wish to hear,
Just that special line,
From your mouth,
And lips so fine,

I can't stop these feelings,
Of love or hate,
I know nothing will happen,
That's just fate,

So I'll keep these thought,
Buried in the sand,
But will keep wishing that,
One day you'll ask for my hand,

Until that day I'll remain,
Conspicuous but completely true,
I realise what love is when,
I can't stop thinking about you.
