Extraordinary

ou are extraordinary, magnificent and rare
I choose my words more carefully than you might choose to hear
And I love you so much, so there, I've said it
And how I wish you loved me to
But what I feel will fill my life
Some of my dreams came true
I count my blessings as I curse my fate and plight
Though you'll never be the one
A least not in this life
You fill an emptiness
And I'm thankful for just knowing you
And as I soar in poet's flight
Though you are far from touch and sight
What I feel is all beautiful and light
Some of my dreams came true
Sweep over me
Sweep over me
Leading me on my journey
Sweep over me
Sweep over me
Leading me on my way
You are extraordinary, magnificent and rare
And if I never sang this song
I'd leave it hanging in the air
Some small part of me has gone to places that can't be gotten to
And as I soar in poet's flight
What I feel some people do
Where it's all beautiful and light
Some of my dreams came true
Extraordinary
