I saw her out today
I watched her walk in circles
Leaving her luxurious curls sway
I couldn't help but think
"Please look my way so I can offer you a drink"

She continued walking
Watching her mouth move constantly
It seemed like she was talking
I couldn't help but think
"What is that mysterious girl doing?"

She stopped her track
In front of my door
Watching her from the store window
She really wasn't a bore
I couldn't help but think
"What is the mysterious girl going to do?"

Just for a moment
I couldn't believe my eyes
She turned and looked into my very eyes
And gave me a cute little wink

I couldn't help but longingly think
"I hope she comes in today so I can offer her a drink."
She walked in circles in front of my door
That belonged to this very store

Pacing around in frustration
It seemed she couldn't help
But walk around and say "Why?"
I couldn't help but think
"This mysterious girl is probably just shy."

Suddenly a new person
From across the way
Made his way to
The mysterious girl whose luxurious curls could sway

I couldn't help but think
"Who is the new guy?"
I was baffled
To think she was just shy
Over a person like me
Unlovable as I can be

She made her way
Into my feelings that were at bay
Inching even closer
With nothing between us except the cash register

I couldn't help but think
"This mysterious girl sure is pretty.."
Her looks were enough to make me giddy
Although everything to know about her will probably remain forever a mystery

She came up to my counter
And she made my heart flutter
It was no surprise
When she made a reply

"I would like a caramel latte."
Her angelic voice
I could forever rejoice
But I must keep my composure
For she just made an order

I couldn't help but think
As I made her drink
"Is this mysterious girl my fate to be?"
I think she might very much like me

I was so focused on everything about her that made me sway
I didn't realize the guy from earlier
Was waiting beside her
Out of the way

I couldn't help but think
After I made her drink
"Silly me, getting ahead of myself
I need to stop staring at her from across the shelf."

I frowned
And only stared at the ground
As I handed her the drink
Not even noticing her little wink

To this day
I never slept a wink
Because every time I would blink
I would still catch myself trying to think
What would've happened if I talked to her?
I miss her a lot
But I guess this whole mess
Will forever keep me distraught
And she will always remain inside of my thoughts
