IT WASN’T A MOONLIT SUMMER’S NIGHT

                         There are times, 
                         when we are together, 
                         standing so close, 
                         almost touching, 
                         I wouldn’t know what to do, 
                         or what to say, 
                         then it comes to me, 
                         that you already know so much of me, 
                         and I of you, 
                         and yet there are still times, 
                         I feel as if I don’t know you .... 
                         There are times, 
                         I just stare at you, 
                         wondering if we’re still friends, 
                         wondering if you think of me, 
                         the same way I do of you, 
                         and wondering if you felt the same way I did, 
                         when we kissed .... 
                         ‘Twas a simple kiss, 
                         yet it turned my life upside down, 
                         ‘twas the kiss which made me wonder, 
                         wonder when the next would be, 
                         wonder how it would feel the next time, 
                         and wonder if we meant it at all, 
                         Or was it just a game? 
                         There are times, 
                         I wish you’d just hold me, 
                         and tell me that everything’s alright, 
                         just hold me and tell me, 
                         we’re still friends, 
                         just hold me and kiss me, 
                         one last time, 
                         coz’ we both know, 
                         that friends are all we’ll ever be .... 
                         There are times, 
                         when we are together, 
                         standing so close, 
                         yet,still not touching, 
                         I’d wish it were a moonlit summer’s night, 
                         but it was just noon, 
                         in a stairway hidden from sight....
