The days are passing by

The hours fade into the depths of time

 

Searching day in and day out

To find that genuine person who knows what I’m about

 

I don’t need help from my family and friends

I don’t need help from mythical creatures for my journey to begin

 

So tell Cupid I will not be in need of his arrows today

And tell Santa that I put my Christmas wish list away

 

Tell my family that I am able

To make my wish come true so no birthday candles

 

I do not need a doctor to patch my heart

The person waiting for me is bleeding for that part

 

I do not need a doctor to examine my head

And I am not yet in the mood for returning to bed

Tell the sandman that I need not anymore dreams

Because they are already bursting out the seams

 

I’m finished with watching fairytales

But I’ll be borrowing Captain Hook’s ship so that I can set sail

 

Tell the president that I’m going to elect

The person dearest to me that I carefully select

 

And forewarn Mother Nature I’m fighting whatever weather comes by

Just give me some fireworks that I can light through the night sky

 

I do not need science to define what is love

Nor do I need a fortune-teller to tell me who I’m thinking of

 

Tell the leprechaun that I will not be in need of his luck and gold

So I will not bother to follow him over the rainbow

 

Between Halloween and Valentine’s I love Halloween more

Because I could possibly be knocking at your door

 

On Thanksgiving Day I want neither a chicken nor a turkey

Just hoping like the groundhog you pop your head out and see me

 

One would be saddened by the approaching New Year but for me it’s a new year to search

Hoping, wishing that I’ve been spotted in the lurk

 

The sun is shining bright and I am feeling well

And if loving you is a crime then put me in jail

 

I’ll be back out in no time enjoying this chase

Yearning for the day when we can meet face to face

 

I shall tell the April fool that I’m not foolish for continuing my journey

Because out there somewhere I have a person waiting, waiting just for me
