Although I may not seem like much at all

By Brett Morrison

Although I may not seem like much at all

With my lonesome way and varied drawl

There is still a luster lit within

Though it's been dimmed, to my chagrin

I have thought these things for some time now

And I want you to know; but don't know how

To spell the words of my adoration

Whilst avoiding pain and misinterpretation

But now I'll spell it as clear as I am able

Because even when I feel unstable

When I think of you, everything is level

For your manner could even charm the devil

When you look at me with your eyes azure

Reality becomes so unsure

I could swear that I am lost at sea

A weary sailor with nowhere to be

When I gaze upon your sincere grin

I remember how long it has been

Since I have seen an expression so real

Or a person so full of zeal 

So I guess what I am trying to say

Before I get too carried away 

Is that I adore you in your every facet

Your charm lulls me so warm and tacit

So although I may not be much at all

Just a lonely boy who lacks in gall

Please my dear, try to understand

And allow me to extend my hand
