I can't really say a lot about this I wanted to write something just sat down and wrote

He can't see me

He looks down at me from the top of the tree
that he's climbed up
so he can see the sea
he's not looking my way, he never does

Chorus
I've put on my prettiest dress
but he's no eyes for me
all he wants is the air in his hair
he can't see me

I used my best make up
and was up at the dawn
I keep having to stifle a yawn
But I don't mind because I'm with him

Chorus
I've put on my prettiest dress
but he's no eyes for me
all he wants is the sand in his toes
he can't see me

we've been friends for so long
and don't get me wrong
but it leaves me with a sadness
because we don't meet , on my terms


Chorus
I've put on my prettiest dress
but he's no eyes for me
all he wants is his freedom
he can't see me

as I'm looking up at him
holding onto my hat
as the rain takes a hold
it's there for as a second
as he holds my gaze

Chorus

I've put on my prettiest dress
but it wasn't his eyes it was mine
now I can see, what makes him happy
it isn't the sea , or the wind in his hair
It's me being there by his side

Chorus
I've put on my prettiest dress
because I'm out to impress
because I love him
because I love him

Hi Katie,

This is really good. I can understand what you're feeling. It makes sense and it wouldn't be hard to find the melody.

I've put on my prettiest dress
but it wasn't his eyes it was mine
now I can see, what makes him happy
it isn't the sea , or the wind in his hair
It's me being there by his side

I'd be more satisfied if instead of "now I can see what makes him happy" you wrote "now I can see what makes me happy". It seems to me her dedication to him even though he may not return her love is true love, and if she realizes that loving him is as important as being loved by him, she'll come to terms with their situation and find happiness.

But that's just an idea. It's lovely the way you wrote it, too.
