I see you over there
With your friends, having fun
You look just… perfect.
I know that you don't see me.

I'm just another one of the guys
One of the people at school
That you walk by in the hallway
Not really seeing me.
I see you
You are there, in my eyes.
You're in my thoughts
I love you.

Today I'm gonna get up.
I'm gonna get in front of you.
I'm gonna say something.
I'll be noticed.

Today, I tried.
But you passed me off as a ******.
You didn't accept my love.
But I'm not giving up.
I'll talk to you again.
You'll see me tomorrow.
I'm gonna make you see me.

Right now,
I'm just another one of the guys
One of the people at school
That you walk by in the hallway
Not really seeing me.
I see you
You are there, in my eyes.
You're in my thoughts
I love you.

I bought you a present.
You just walked by me again.
You laughed at my effort.
Everyone says I should give up.
But I won't.
One more time, again.
Maybe in a few days.

This time I wrote you this poem.
You finally saw me.
You smiled.
Even though you never did before.
I know I have a chance now.

I'm just another one of the guys
One of the people at school
That you walk by in the hallway
Not really seeing me.
I see you
You are there, in my eyes.
You're in my thoughts
I love you.


Now I'm your guy.
That guy at school
That you kiss in the hallway
Seeing me, even with closed eyes
I still I see you
You are there, in my eyes.
You're in my thoughts
I love you.
And you love me.
