1. The Girl Next Door
By Jessica Warner
You haunt my thoughts, dreams, and desires
Thinking about you in anyway, my heart admires
Waiting for a simple smile, my will never tires
Your touch ignites deep within, spreading like liquid fire
Even a small glance from you as you walk past me
Lost for a moment i shy away for fear you'll see
The blush in my cheeks, sometimes so intense I need to flee
Because in your sight is the only place I want to be
Hanging out alone with you, completely muddles my mind
Chances to tell you how I feel, when words are hard to find
Speechless I sit there, emotions screaming deep inside
Wanting to bare all to you, but instead I hide
As I start home you come in close, I'm wondering whats in
store
Then you wrap your arms around me, I am wanting so much
more
Your lips locking with mine, with knees so weak I could hit
the floor
Right in that moment, I am secretly praying you could fall
for
The girl next door
