lyrics

He watched the door as she came in,
He felt his heart go tumblin’
He winced as she passed him for me.
He felt the loss so suddenly.

All he wants to do is take her home,
And think of her and her alone.
He could have sworn that she’s the one.
He soon felt his cool come undone.

If only she could hear him sing,
He’d write a song and everything.
I bet if she could see him dance,
She might even give him a chance.

She noticed him noticing her.
She felt the room begin to blur.
She thought of all those guys she loved before,
She promised she wouldn’t love anymore.

If only he could hear her sing,
She’d write a song and everything.
I bet if he could see her dance,
He might even give her a chance.

If only she could hear him sing,
He’d write a song and everything.
I bet if she could see him dance.
She might even give him a chance.

He watched the door as she came in,
She felt her heart go tumblin’.

If only he could hear her sing,
She’d write a song and everything.
I bet if he could see her dance,
He might even give her a chance.

If only she could hear him sing,
He’d write a song and everything.
I bet if she could see him dance,
She might even give him a chance.
