You kissed me once by mistake

Thought I was somebody else

I felt that kiss and I envied

That somebody else

I wanted you for myself

I guess I was shameless and bold

But I made a plan in my heart

I've never breathed, I've never told



I must try to make the man love me,

Make the man love me now

Bye and bye, I'll make the man happy

I know how



He must see how badly I want him,

Want him just as he is

May I say that should the man ask me,

I'll be his



Can I tell the man

Just how dearly blessed we would be?

All the beauty I see so clearly,

Oh, why can't he?



So, I pray to heaven above me,

Pray until day grows dim

For a way to make the man love me

As I love him



For a way to make the man love me

As I love him
