I can see her now
I can hear her too,
dancing in my midday sun,
every dream is true.
I can see him there
waiting in the hall,
running through this empty house,
every time I call.
The girl I never had
makes me smile and makes me sad,
makes me wonder what I had
to say.
The boy I never knew
makes me laugh and makes me blue,
makes me wonder what I threw
away.
I can see her now
heading off to school,
she would be the clever one,
everyday so cool.
I can see him there
sat behind a wheel,
driving down my city street,
every scene is real.
The girl I never had
makes me smile and makes me sad,
makes me wonder what I had
to say.
The boy I never knew
makes me laugh and makes me blue,
makes me wonder what I threw
away.
The girl I never had
makes me smile and makes me sad,
makes me wonder what I had (in mind)
to say.
The boy I never knew
makes me laugh and makes me blue,
makes me wonder what I threw (in kind)
away.
I can see her now…
