When Someone Loves Me

The way a flower blooms and leans
Ever so slightly to the sun
The way the grass glistens
Right after a rain has come
The stars that shine that we count
One by beautiful one
That's how I feel
When someone loves me
A deep August warm sunny afternoon
A vibrant and joyous party
In the heyday of June
That's how I feel
When someone loves me
You can see the glow of red
In my cheeks
Sometimes you may have to
Repeat yourself
Because I am so lost in thought
The music in my head
Flows through and I am caught up
I try to stay aware of my surroundings
My heart it drifts away
What can I do
What should I say
You ask me what's wrong
And I smile because
I am better than okay
This is who I am
And what my soul comprehends
When someone loves me
