I Close My Eyes and Count to Ten
Embracing the Unbelievable: Love's Surreal Symphony
Lyrics
It isn't the way that you look
Physical appearance is not the sole factor influencing my feelings.
And it isn't the way that you talk
Verbal communication is not the primary source of attraction.
It isn't the things that you say or do
Actions and words alone don't explain my strong desire for you.
Make me want you so
Your overall presence and essence captivate me.
It is nothing to do with the wine
Alcohol and music are not responsible for my emotions.
Or the music that's flooding my mind
The external influences are not the cause; it's an internal realization.
But never before have I been so sure
Unprecedented certainty that you are the person of my dreams.
You're the someone I dreamed I would find
Confirmation that you match the ideal someone from my dreams.
It's the way you make me feel
The emotional impact you have on me is profound.
The moment I am close to you
Proximity to you evokes a unique and intense emotion.
It's a feeling so unreal
The emotions I'm experiencing seem surreal and hard to believe.
Somehow I can't believe it's true
Doubt about the reality of the overwhelming emotions.
The pounding I feel in my heart
Intense heartbeat as a physical manifestation of emotions.
The hoping that we'll never part
Hope and desire for an enduring connection with you.
I can't believe this is really happening to me
Amazement that the situation is truly happening to me.
I close my eyes and count to ten
A ritual of closing eyes and counting to ten to absorb the reality.
And when I open them you're still here
A reassurance that you are still present after the ritual.
I close my eyes and count again
A repeated ritual, emphasizing disbelief in the current reality.
I can't believe it but you're still here
Continued disbelief in your continued presence.
We were strangers a moment ago
Recent acquaintances with dreams but no tangible achievements.
With a few dreams but nothing to show
Strangers until a short time ago with aspirations yet unfulfilled.
The world was a place with a frown on its face
A pessimistic view of the world, marked by uncertainty.
And tomorrow was just, I don't know
An undefined future, lacking clarity and direction.
But the way you make me feel
Reiteration of the emotional impact of your presence.
The moment I am close to you
Reaffirmation of the intense feelings in close proximity.
Makes today seem so unreal
Distortion of time, making the present feel unreal.
Somehow I can't believe it's true
Doubt persists, questioning the authenticity of emotions.
Tomorrow, will you still be here?
Anxiety about the continuity of emotions into the future.
Tomorrow will come but I fear
Awareness of the inevitable arrival of the future, tinged with fear.
That what is happening to me is only a dream
Skepticism that the current experience might be ephemeral.
I close my eyes and count to ten
Repetition of the ritual, perhaps seeking constant reassurance.
And when I open them you're still here
Confirmation of your continued presence after the ritual.
I close my eyes and count again
Repetition of disbelief, emphasizing the ongoing astonishment.
I can't believe it but you're still here
Continued disbelief in your enduring presence.
I close my eyes and count to ten
Final repetition of the ritual, underscoring the surreal experience.
And when I open them, you're still here
A concluding confirmation of your persistent presence.
