A letter to A student at Rice,
Her response to me, "so nice'"
Oh, a reaction so shallow
Got me feeling so hollow

This thing I can't believe 
But I'll always have my dreams

Extraordinary but no one there to see (x2)
I leap tall buildings in a single bound
Fill stadiums, arenas without a sound
Extraordinary but no one there to see
I grab the stars
Right through the clouds
I grab the stars
Feet firm on the ground
Extraordinary but no one there to see

Hand on my forehead
Grandma puts me to bed
You had a great day
Two bases, one play
Or just an utter lack of speed

Diggin' a bit deeper
Little scorekeeper 
An instance I dread
Ball off my head
So different than my dreams

Extraordinary but no one there to see (x2)
I leap tall buildings in a single bound
Fill stadiums, arenas without a sound
Extraordinary but no one there to see
I grab the stars
Right through the clouds
I grab the stars
Feet firm on the ground
Extraordinary but no one there to see

A working colleague
One day she called me
Hey guys, come over and hang out
And I couldn't believe
I had been deceived
Slept with my best friend

Woke up the next mornin'
It was rainin', pourin'
That day I lament
So back to sleep I went

And watched the man I truly am

Extraordinary but no one there to see (x2)
I leap tall buildings in a single bound
Fill stadiums, arenas without a sound
Extraordinary but no one there to see
I grab the stars
Right through the clouds
I grab the stars
Feet firm on the ground
Extraordinary but no one there to see [comments] => 3 [counter] => 150 [topic] => 14 [informant] => Beyfoxman5 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => DreamsandWishes ) Your Poetry Dot Com - Extraordinary, but no one there to see

Extraordinary, But No One There To See

A letter to A student at Rice,
Her response to me, "so nice'"
Oh, a reaction so shallow
Got me feeling so hollow

This thing I can't believe 
But I'll always have my dreams

Extraordinary but no one there to see (x2)
I leap tall buildings in a single bound
Fill stadiums, arenas without a sound
Extraordinary but no one there to see
I grab the stars
Right through the clouds
I grab the stars
Feet firm on the ground
Extraordinary but no one there to see

Hand on my forehead
Grandma puts me to bed
You had a great day
Two bases, one play
Or just an utter lack of speed

Diggin' a bit deeper
Little scorekeeper 
An instance I dread
Ball off my head
So different than my dreams

Extraordinary but no one there to see (x2)
I leap tall buildings in a single bound
Fill stadiums, arenas without a sound
Extraordinary but no one there to see
I grab the stars
Right through the clouds
I grab the stars
Feet firm on the ground
Extraordinary but no one there to see

A working colleague
One day she called me
Hey guys, come over and hang out

So back to sleep I went

And watched the man I truly am

Extraordinary but no one there to see (x2)
I leap tall buildings in a single bound
Fill stadiums, arenas without a sound
Extraordinary but no one there to see
I grab the stars
Right through the clouds
I grab the stars
Feet firm on the ground
Extraordinary but no one there to see
