I met you just the other day,

Love at first sight

But I know it'll never be,

Hearts will never take flight.

See I just met you in the city

As you walked on by

In among migrating crowds

Trying to get to work on time.

Your head was bowed bashfully

Before you looked my way

As if afraid of the bustling world

That you braved every day.

Our eyes met as you smiled at me

And gave a playful wink

Before your gaze returned to the ground.

My head had no time to think

As my heart leapt over the edge,

Flying past my heels

Into a sumptuous pit of love,

An amorous, reviving sea.

But I know it's all so silly

And I'll have to just walk on,

Flick to the next chapter,

Fast forward over the song.

Yet that doesn't stop me

Wondering over your name

And crying over countless stars

Are you out there feeling the same?
