Too Good For Me

Since it has been so long since my last post, I wanted to break the silence again relatively quickly by sharing the lyrics to one of my older original songs. This is the 6th song I wrote about the boy I called My Sweet Beloved, penciled in early June 2006.

Too Good For Me
If only you could understand what it would mean to me 
If you'd take my hand, give me all you could be 
Maybe you could truly know how deeply I care for you, ooh 
Sometimes when I think of you I start to cry 
Because you'll never love me and I don't know why 
But at least I can still pretend you will in my mind 

[Chorus] 
I look at you and see a sweet heart that's out of reach 
I know that you could never be mine 
But I've loved you so long, how could I really move on? 
Another love would be so hard to find 
You're just too good for me 

I've tried to let you go, but it hasn't worked, you see 
I love you more than life - you make me so happy 
But still I know you'll never feel the same for me 
The other night I realized just how much I 
Still hope someday you will make me ask why 
You chose me, because you're more than I need 
But it'll never happen - you're just too good for me 

[Chorus]

Captivated by you, I long for what could be 
Always dreaming of more and more sweet fantasies 
But when I wake up from those dreams I see 
That they can't ever be - you're just too good for me 

I know it's for the best the way that it has to be 
You long for her - you'll never long for me 
But forever you will hold my heart's key  

I look at you and see a sweet heart that's out of reach 
I know that you could never be mine 
But I've loved you so long how could I really move on? 
Another love would be so hard to find 

I look at you and see a part of a better me 
How could I even wish you were mine? 
I've loved you for so long, but for you I'll move on 
Another love might not be so hard to find 
You're just too good for me 

You amaze me constantly 
You've changed my life totally 
You're just too good for me
