It's 12:04am and I'm trying my best to sleepAll I can think about are memories we haven't created yetMemories waiting to be planted and blossomI'm thinking about youIf your hair is long...blonde maybeMaybe you have green eyes that sparkle like a gemI wonder what my name sounds like coming from your lipsAnd if you'll finally be the one for me.
