I see you shining on a Saturday

I thought I'd let you know

I couldn't catch your eye, but that's OK

You'd rather let me go


I'm tired of reaching out to take your hand

To guide you to the light

You act as if I'm from some foreign land

When I am in your sight


What has happened to the sparkle in your eyes?

Replaced it with a permanent disguise for me...


Why did it die? Why did it die?

Tell me why, now baby, why you let it die


And baby, baby, we've all been hurt before

To build a wall around you will only hurt more

And I'll stand outside that wall 'til it falls down

And climb inside where your loving will be found


Seated two tables down in the cafe

With that old friend of mine

I should've never looked across the way

And now I would be fine
