I don't want to be just another one of "those guys",
The ones that ask your friends if you're worth the chance
I'm not looking for a new trophy or to take home the prize
Something more than just friends, perhaps a subtle romance.

I'm happy with the friendship that we've got,
Even though I have these crazy thoughts, like saying to you... "damn you're hot!"
Life is just too short not to say to you - something
I feel a special chemistry between us, a certain vibe, are you my yin?

With each day that we become closer in our friendship,
A moment of breathlessness follows, a beat my heart skips
I feel drawn to you, like no-one else stands before me,
I'm waiting for that chance to show you, what could be!

So I hold a deep breath in, as I look to find the right time,
To ask if you feel the same way, after reading this from the heart.
I'm taking a chance on you now, as I cross that do I/ don't I - "invisible" line
I hope this is not the end of the beginning from where something lovely starts.
