VERSE #1: |
|
I was right in front of you |
|
Standing in clear view |
|
I had so much to show |
|
I was like an open book |
|
You never even looked |
|
So much I wanted you to know |
|
The deepest part of me |
|
You never tried to reach |
|
It would have been so easy |
|
CHORUS: |
|
All you had to do was pay some attention |
|
All you had to do was look past the surface |
|
But you never noticed much of anything |
|
All you had to do was just try to listen |
|
All you ever did was just catch a glimpse |
|
And the tragedy is that you left so much unseen |
|
You left so much unseen |
|
VERSE #2: |
|
You know my favorite color's blue |
|
When I wear something new |
|
And my favorite song |
|
You didn't know my biggest fear |
|
Was that you didn't care |
|
That this ain't the life I want |
|
To be right by your side |
|
And have this great divide |
|
We were close but so far |
|
CHORUS |
|
BRIDGE: |
|
All that ever really mattered |
|
Was overlooked |
|
All you had to do was pay some attention |
|
All you had to do was look past the surface |
|
CHORUS |
