“Sweet Baby Blue”

My Sweet Baby Blue

How could I ever give up on you

Not quite where others expect me to be

Seem to be

Giving up on me

Putting my dreams on the back burner

As if I could never return

As if this redirection isn’t a blessing but a burn

A burn to my hopes and wishes

How could I ever give that up

For something so small that could be taken away

Could always have another,

Sweet Baby Blue

But dreams don’t last forever

No, not like you do

In my mind

Or in my life

Which one would I rather choose

To hold my Sweet Baby Blue in my mind

Or hold my Sweet Baby Blue in my arms

A decision that has me askew

So I care for your maker

Seems like my first true love, again

How quickly Blue came to

Makes me wonder, Do I really know you

Give you all my heart

Like everything depended on it

Me, you, Blue

Everything depended on it

But in the end it feels like it’s all for nothing

Except Sweet Baby Blue

Because even though I can’t have your maker

I’ll never stop loving you

My Sweet Baby Blue

I can imagine your smile

How sweet and innocently so

How your laugh will echo through my heart

Like a cave with never ending songs

My Sweet Baby Blue

I can’t wait to hold you close

Smell your scent that says I’m finally here

As you bring me tears of joy
