Lyrics
[verse]
Sweetest girl I see across the crowded floor
Every time I try to speak I want more
You don't even know my name is on my mind
Wish that I could tell you but I'm always shy this time
[chorus]
My cherie amour, gentle as the morning light
My cherie amour, wish that I could say
How I feel about you but I never find the way
My cherie amour, distant as the stars away
[verse]
Every window I pass by I catch a glance
Hoping one day you might give my heart a chance
I write your name in every song I hum
Waiting for the courage that just never comes
[bridge]
Maybe on some ordinary afternoon
I'll gather every bit of courage none too soon
Walk across that floor and take your hand in mine
And tell you that my heart has loved you all this time
[chorus]
My cherie amour, gentle as the morning light
My cherie amour, wish that I could say
How I feel about you but I never find the way
My cherie amour, distant as the stars away
