Crisp and Blue

She wears a uniform that's crisp and blue
But when it comes to love, she feels so out of view
She's got the badge, the handcuffs, and the hat
But all she wants is someone to hold her tight like that

Every night she walks the lonely beat
Protecting city streets, where shadows meet
Beneath that tough exterior, she's just a soul
Longing for a love to make her whole

She yearns for a love that's not afraid
To see beyond the uniform, past the barricade
Her heart is ready, eager to burst
But in her gear, love feels rehearsed

In the silence of the night, she dreams
Of someone who sees beyond the seams
A love that understands, sees her true
A partner who appreciates all she can do

When the sirens fade and the night is still
She dreams of a love that gives her a thrill
A touch, a smile, that’s just for her
Beyond the duty, where true emotions stir

One day she'll find someone who sees
The woman in the blue, with hopes and dreams
A love that's fearless, a love that's true
For the policewoman in uniform, and the woman too

When the sirens fade and the night is still
She dreams of a love that gives her a thrill
A touch, a smile, that’s just for her
Beyond the duty, where true emotions stir
