Can I Reach You

You shine like the brightest star While I stand here, feeling so far I have no riches, no charm to show But there's something in me you should know I'm not handsome, I'm not bold No sparkling stories, no pockets of gold I look at you, and I can't help but see Everything I'm not, but everything I dream to be You're a masterpiece, flawless and bright While I fumble through this endless night My heart speaks loud, but my voice is weak Do I deserve the love I seek Can I reach you, or is it a sin To dream of a love I can't begin You're too beautiful, I'm too small Would you catch me if I fall My heart is true, but my hands are bare Do I even have the right to care I'm full of flaws, but this much is true All I have is love for you I see the world in your gentle eyes But I'm afraid to try, afraid of goodbye I've got nothing to offer, no grand display Just a quiet promise to never walk away If I take one step, will you turn around Or will I crumble without a sound This love feels like a fragile frame Burning bright, but whispering your name Can I reach you, or is it a sin To dream of a love I can't begin You're too beautiful, I'm too small Would you catch me if I fall My heart is true, but my hands are bare Do I even have the right to care I'm full of flaws, but this much is true All I have is love for you Maybe love is a leap of faith A step into the unknown space I'm scared, but I can't let go You're the only dream I've ever known So I stand here, holding my breath Hoping you'll see what's in my chest I may not shine, I may not stand tall But I'll love you through it all Can I reach you, or is it a sin To hope for a love I can't begin I have nothing, but my heart is true And all I want is to reach for you
