So Close, Yet So Far

Why can’t I get closer?
I’ve done all I can for her
I love the woman to death
She almost feels the same, yet

There’s this other boy
Who I think is a decoy
But she’s still hanging with him
Leaving me to guess on a limb

Does she actually want the decoy?
Leaving my heart to be destroyed?
Or will she choose to be with me
Even though I thought to flee

I love her, there’s no doubt
I’d scream it out and shout
But what if the decoy see’s?
Will he fall to his knees?

I can’t stand causing pain
Even to a decoy, there’s nothing to gain
I want her to make the choice
I want to hear it from her voice

Which prince will she choose?
One of us will sing the blues
All I can do is wait and see
If she’s truly meant to be, with me.
