Out Of The Ball Park

Swinging for the fences

Never thought I would make it here

Marking out the spot

The bat goes 'round but I can't see the ball

Out so far over the parking lot

Heading towards the moon

That's how I see you

Without hope I try to make an approach

I see your smile and I wonder how

Someone can tell me I have a chance

Just like a major leagurer

All eyes look to you on the big screen

Trying to compare baseball to life

And getting the hit to finding an invisible love

Maybe you're the one but I really don't know

One of my sisters seems to think so

You are just too good for me

Way out of my league

Just to be near you is intimidating

But to be with you would be a dream come true

Seeing a spirit in you that is so high above

A smile that shines of another

With a voice that breaks down walls

Why is it that I push myself away?

For some reason I have built up a standard

And when you come along and exceed it by miles

Fear takes hold of my heart that holds all my love

Living to wait on you, how will I go on?

Do you even know that I have my eyes on you?

A diamond in the rough places of my heart

Consumed by fire day and night

I have no rest until your face comes into view

Now on my uniform I wear your lucky number

Hoping that I will be blessed by it somehow

So here I am ready to play in the game of life

Stepping up to the plate ready to swing away
