if i wrote you a love song


if i wrote you a love song would you listen to my words
the syllables that come on strong and are not just inferred
the way i feel would be revealed in lyric layered lines
mixing in the merriment if you would just be mine

words unmasked that i would task to tell a tale of love
the suppleness that you possess which i am dreaming of
my heart repatriated to the beauty of your eyes
a romance scribe i would describe their color in reprise

yes, if i wrote while watching you would words mean anything
would you hear the melody in the song in which i sing
the heart that pounds within the sound of every word i write
the ending rhyme would pantomime my arms holding you tight
