Post 757: From the Outside (8/03/09)

4   From the Outside (8/02/09 c, 8/03/09 w)

Every time I see your face

My heart, it starts to race

And every time I hear your voice

Your timbre sends a shiver down my spine

I’m looking in

From the outside

I know I’m

I probably never cross your mind

But I’d like to

But until that day (if it ever comes)

I’ll be looking on

From the outside

Do you know that I’m alive

I would be surprised if you did

Because about the only thing I’m good at

Is never getting noticed

I’m sure you don’t notice me

But I notice you

From the outside

I know I’m

I probably never cross your mind

But I’d like to

But until that day (if it ever comes)

I’ll be looking on

From the outside

I passed by about a million times

But I’ve never seen you

Looking my way

But maybe today I’m going to hide my fear away

And maybe talk to you

If you let me

I can tell you’re something special

Something that I can’t define

Something that keeps you on my mind

From the outside

I know I’m

I probably never cross your mind

But I’d like to

But until that day (if it ever comes)

I’ll be looking on

From the outside
