Just the thought that we might meet creates anticipation.
Em D G
Won't you look my way once before you go and my eyes will say what you
Bm
what you ought to know
Am D7 Am
Well I've been thinkin' about you day and night...and I don't know if
D7 Am D7 G-F-E
it'll work out right... but somehow I think that it just might...if we try.

But something yearns within to grow beyond infatuation.
Em D G
Won't you look my way once before you go and my eyes will say
Bm
what you ought to know
Am D7 Am
Well you've got me standin' deaf and blind...cause I see love as just a
D7 Am D7 G---
state of mind...and who knows what it is that we might find...if we try.
BRIDGE:
Gm C Gm C
You're walking a different direction from most people I've met.
Am D Am D---
You're givin' me signs of affection I don't usually get.
Em Bm Am D G
I don't want you to pledge your future the future's not yours to give.
Em Bm C- Em Am F---E
Just stand there a little longer and let me watch while you live.
