I wanted to be your superhero.
I wanted to be your sun.
I wanted to be your laughter,
Your teardrops, your dreams, your fun.
I wanted to be the comb
That would brush your beautiful hair
As you sat glistening in the moonlight;
So angelic as I pictured you there.
I wanted so much to tell you
You are the star that lights the dark.
But for fear of failure I kept it hidden -
The honest love felt within my heart.
I must have hid it well
But I should have never tried.
Because somewhere in my search for courage
Your love for me was pushed aside.
Now I want to hold you
And be what you need me to be.
I just pray He sends down an angel
To somehow lead you back to me.
