You’re the one

a poem by Gautam Dhar

On this hot day in July
For someone like you I try
But it’s with a moan and a sigh
Oh please don’t ask me why

Its’ something I’d never say
But there’s not a lot I can give away
Just this little pray I have
In my own same old way

If you ever look at the sky
And want to reach the stars
I would ask the one up high
To give you wings so you could fly

Now the shades of time are saying
Oh it’s time to let you go
And I’ll be dying very slowly
Until your next hello.

But before I say goodbye
I will say this with a sigh
Until my heart stops beating
My love for you will never die

So here’s to a dream
And here’s to a song
Here’s to a theme
For you to sing along

Oh here’s to you
And here’s to our love
Hope you find someone new
Bright as the clouds up above

As I wander around in the evening sun
I can’t help but think of you my love
You may forget who I was
But you’re the only one that I’m thinking of.
