Lyrics:


My eyes start to wander.  I find myself catch a glance of you. 
My focus drawn away towards the other side of the room, 
while I am comtemplating a chance meeting you someday, 
I feel I remonstrate against myself, held at bay...

If I could speak to you... I guess you'd see right through me.
And if I knew your name... I wouldn't know what to say.
I could draw these conclusions, without ever venturing...
Why did fate bring me this catastrophy?

The cold catches me, lost in a vacant memory,
still-pictures etched in my mind of a life hung over me.
So I remain inactive, repeating and re-iterating 
a hope that's quickly, so quickly fading.


 



 The story:
This was based on a personal experience of a time when I sat in the college mall where I attended school.  Every day I sat there and did my homework in between classes.  So did she.  There was this girl I just couldn't help but notice.  It's not like I'm the kind to sit there and scope out chicks but something about this girl just stuck out.  The way she talked to her friends and laughed and carried herself, it just all made her remarkable.  I often thought about approaching her and of course never did.  So that's what this song is about-- Fear to approach what makes you're heart flutter...
