A second worth of looking into those eyes
A second that changed my mind
I should spend the last weeks of summer
Here where hope seemed nowhere.

I might have not known you
If only you had not come out of that tinted glass door
With your eyes so beautiful and your smile so warm
Just like the way you said 'Hi' for the first time.

I knew I had to take the risk, change my mind
I should have not be here
If only I had not wanted to look into those eyes again
And know the guy who owned them.

I was watching you when no one seemed to care --
I noticed how true what they had told me about you,
I noticed your actions that were just so unlikeable .. But
I also noticed a hope flickering deep inside of you.

There's a lot of good things in you
I hoped you saw them too,
I hoped you would let others see them, there's so much more than what meets the eye
And you were beautiful.

I would never regret the way I changed my mind
Just so I could look the second, third, fourth,
No, I had looked at you a hundred times --
You were worth it, and you will turn out all right.
