My Love is a Stapler

Dearest Elaine,

How I wish I could say "I love you" to you.  But the time for those words has not yet come.  Until then, I can only say "I love you Elaine" here.



On this starry night
I sit and wonder why and start to write
All my thoughts and feelings down for you
'cause I know they're true

Crazy as it seems
I'm holding on to all my hopes and dreams
I'm running out of room for all my words
I need another sheet
Maybe I should calculate and equate
My answer for your love
You're the one I'm dreaming of

Chorus:
I'll make a wish on a star that is shining so bright
I think I worry too much I'll just sit down and write...
My feelings on paper for you. They'll be stapled too.
It started simple at first, didn't have any clue
I think I wrote way too much, these staples won't go through
I'll wait for tomorrow again
And write some more... I'll see you again.

2nd:
I re-read the words way too many times
I feel annoyed but I can't help the way I feel inside
I'll read them one more time.

Should I hold on to
The feelings that I'm saving all for you?
If I throw them out I'll be in pain
I'll be the one to blame.
Now it's time for me to let my feelings show
I'm searching for the words.
If I don't... I'll never know.

Chorus:
I'm so excited to go with the plan that I made
I just expanded my words 'cause there's so much to say
Now I have another page. Let's staple away.
And when I recall my day my chest gets very tight
I feel so tired right now but I know I'll be fine
I ran out of staples again. I'll get some more.
I'll see you again

Chorus:
I'll make a wish on a star that is shining so bright
I think I worry too much I'll just sit down and write...
My feelings on paper for you. They'll be stapled too.
It started simple at first, didn't have any clue
I think I wrote way too much, these staples won't go through
I'll wait for tomorrow again
And write some more... I'll see you again.
