Nate, oh Nate

A smile appears on a face, a giggle escapes from my lips.
His words bring peace, serenity. It all makes me feel at ease.
I’ve wished upon some shooting stars, hoping he can erase all my scars.
The pain was stained on my face. My heart has been an empty place.

He speaks of wisdom and shares his knowledge.
A young man bound for great things. With lots of compassion for human beings.
His heart I feel beats like a drum. Sweet like candy making me go numb.

I dream of him late at night, desperately holding onto my pillow tight.
We float around clouds like little kids. Holding hands, blowing a kiss.
He likes me lots. He likes me, no. It seems like I can know.
What does this mean? This boy that life brings.

Nate, oh Nate. Where can you be? I’ve searched around from sand to sea.
Your smiles here safe with me. Your looks don’t matter, baby let it be.
I hear you now, somewhere near. I promise I won’t shed a tear.

Hold me close, make me warm. I swear I’ll never leave your arms.
Eyes on fire, they’re pulling me in.
I feel like heaven when we touch, please let this be enough.
That smile makes me sail away. Nate, take me on to better days.
