This is a poem I wrote in 2005. I imagine all of my poetry set to music, though I am rarely able to come up with my own tunes. This is one of the few that I might have succeeded in at least creating a tune for the chorus, though it sounds strangely familiar. Hey pretty girl I love the way you are So nice and sweet You're my little star We go well together Like A lion and his roar You've had a taste of my love, girl But you'll never make it to the core So close and yet so far You just remind me Of how I want her So close and yet so far You just remind me Of how I miss her Close to me Don't take this the wrong way I really like you girl I grow fonder every day 'Cause you're such a whirl Though there's nothing wrong Not everything is quite right You know that I'd love too But don't ask me to stay the night So close and yet so far You just remind me Of how I want her So close and yet so far You just remind me Of how I miss her Close to me We've become best friends And playing these games with you has been so much fun But it hurts me to tell you You just aren't the one Though we comfort each other Through our many hurts And you're so very tempting But you just aren't her You just aren't her So close and yet so far You just remind me Of how I want her So close and yet so far You just remind me Of how I miss her Close to me I'm so sorry girl I still like you But you just can't compete I look into your eyes And she's not there You just remind me...
