" and then my soul saw you and kind of went
'oh, there you are,
i've been looking for you.'"

she looked at me,
i didn't know her name,
what her favorite colour was,
where she lives,
but i knew,
oh i knew,
she's the one i've came all this way for.
she is why i ended up here.
in this loud, populated city,
where faces pass you by,
too busy to say hi.
you wonder why,
why are they in such a hurry?
slow down.
look around.
this place is beautiful,
if you would just stop and look around you.
slow down

that's how i saw her,
when i slowed down,
and looked around.

the prettiest things are what catch your eye.
that's when i saw her.

my heart was racing as fast as the people around me.
she didn't notice me,
until the train went on its way.

a huge gush of wind from the passing train sent my lyrics flying.
except one.

it flew right up into her face.
she handed it to me,

' am i blushing? ' i thought to myself

oh yes i was.

she proceeded, with a giggle, to the oncoming train.

i look down
her cherry red lipstick,
imprinted around my small, tiny hand writing,
on these lyrics;

" Leaves fall from the tallest trees
Even mountains crumble into the sea
Holding on to memories
And I can't let go "

i don't think she'll remember me,
but, oh,
i'm sure as hell i will never forget,
those ocean coloured eyes,

maybe i'll see her again.

no,
no.
i will see her again.
