lyrics

hey there lookin' at me tell me what do you see
but you quickly turn your head away
try to find the words i could use
don't have the courage to come up to you
my chance is looking abit grey
staring across the room are you leaving soon?
i just need a little time
what is it that drives me mad girls like you that i never had
what is it about you that i adore?
what makes me go so insane that makes me feel so much pain
what is it about you that i adore?
staring across the room
why did you have to leave so soon?
why did you have to walk away?
oh well it happened again
she walked away with her boyfriend
maybe we'll meet again someday
