elated (song lyrics)

when you look at me
I wonder what you see
I feel so high
like the clouds in the sky
when you walk right by

I feel elated
somewhat elevated
at the thought of you
and the things you do
the stars shine bright
I feel delight
your soul draws me near
and your voice whispers sweetly in my ear

though I can't regret
the moment that we met
it seems untrue
from my point of view
now it's up to you

I feel elated
though quite frustrated
when I think of you
no matter what I do
I cannot fight
it feels so right
to give you love to share
but I don't know if your heart's aware

is it destiny
or a fantasy
that keeps my heart captive by your eyes
I just wish you'd realize
that my heart is your prize

so I hope and pray
you'll be mine someday
if for a night
of sweet delight
once we turn out the light

that you're elated
and once we've mated
our hearts would sing in tune
and circle round the moon
I wouldn't cling
there'd be no strings
that tie each other down
if you could just open your eyes and turn around
