Never Knew

She walks through the door

Like so many times before

But this time she had my head turning

Like a movie scene,

slow-motion dream

I wonder if she caught me smiling

We hug and sit

We do this quite a bit

Another lunch between two friends

Says sorry I'm late

I didn't mind the wait

She smiles at me and I start melting

'Cause I never knew

That when she smiles

She lights up the whole room

She tells me her day,

She's got a lot to say

I don't mind to hear her speak

The waiter passes by

Well that's okay we'll take our time

Cause there's not place I'd rather be

She tells a joke I've heard

But I pretend she's told me first

And then I laugh a bit too early

That's when I realize

I've been staring at her eyes

I wonder if she sees right through me

I never knew

Her eyes were such a pretty shade of blue

It's time to go

But little does she know

I don't really want to leave

We go our separate ways

And as she drives away

It all becomes so very clear to me

I never knew

I never knew

I never knew

That all this time I'd been falling for you
