She was sitting in class, painting her nails He watched her every move, he could tell She never knew he was there She wore the latest styles and knew what was cool He was tall and shy, the smartest in the school She didn't care He looked forward to seeing her every day At lunch time, and as he sat down She would leave On a dance floor, and lost in the crowd He got the courage to hold out his hand and smile She said "In your dreams"
He was there She hardly noticed He was invisible And not the coolest guy He was there And he mattered All she had to do Was just return a smile
Ten years and three kids later She was working in a grocery store Her marriage falling apart at the seams Tall & shy turned into dark & handsome A wealthy lawyer with all the answers Every womanâs dream
One day she passed him on the street He stole her heart instantly She stared in disbelief She was wearing worn out clothes Her kids were screaming and out of control And she smiled but he said "In your dreams"
He was there She never noticed He had been invisible And after all this time He was there And he mattered It took her years to know it He'd been there all the time........... And all she had to do, Was just return a smile
