Bloom
[verse]
I’ve watched the slow unfolding of your beauty;
how you’ve bloomed as you’ve grown.
from a skinny kid with a metallic smile;
that girl I used to know.
[verse]
I remember that you had a crush on me.
called you a stupid kid.
I remember regretting that I’d said it.
pulled you close and we kissed.
[pre chorus]
You knew it wasn’t passion.
You read it in my eyes.
You cried but knew I was right.
When I said, give it time.
[chorus]
I didn’t know if you’d wait or hate me.
but I kept an eye on you.
growing more beautiful every day.
like a rose starting to bloom.
[verse]
These days you have a long line of admirers;
Guys who’d die to date you.
But you show no interest in any of them.
It’s as if they won’t do.
[verse]
I wonder, does your heart still belong to me.
If so, I'd like to know.
You’re no longer the wild eyed innocent girl
that I knew ten years ago.
[pre chorus]
I wanted more at the time
but I wasn’t that guy.
If you were to kiss me now.
I’d surely lose that fight.
[chorus]
I didn’t know if you’d wait or hate me.
but I’ve kept an eye on you.
Growing more beautiful every day;
like a rose starting to bloom.
[bridge]
You caught me looking and smiling at you.
whispered I’m ready are you?
Said, I’ve never forgotten that first kiss.
What do you think we should do?
[verse]
Circumstances have changed and you are older.
We can do as we please.
You’ve blossomed into a beautiful woman.
The woman of my dreams. [outro]
I didn’t know if you’d wait or hate me.
but I’ve kept an eye on you.
growing more beautiful every day.
you’re a rose in full bloom.

Easy listening, almost folk vibe. Probably not a commercial song, but I can imagine this going down a treat at a singer/songwriter night!
More of a Suno thing, but there's a long gap between verses 3 and 4 that doesn't feel like it needs to be there.
Like the melody in the Bridge and the little pause at the end of that - makes you expectant for the answer.
Very smooth lyric, and not overdone with the rose/bloom metaphor. Just consistently used. Nicely done!
