Excuse me baby girl, you wanna share my umbrella?
I saw you talking that guy, and yo I'm scared he's your fella.

Can I love you yet?
Has it been long enough?
am I strong enough?
Girl, it's you I long to touch
I've said too much, I always do,
I always knew, I'd probably scare you
by dropping my guard; if you shove me I fall,
I'd rather love you and lose you, then never love you at all.
I want to be comfortable,
be alone and feel wonderful
do nothing and still get excited
say nothing, I still get excited
we passed in the halls, our hands brushed by each other
I wanted to hold her, I wanted to love her,
I knew that that could never be
because she doesn't want me
at all

All I know is that she's beautiful, short with dark hair,
we've never talked before, I don't even know her name, but we could start there
my heart's scared, I can feel it flex when I stare at her
it's not fair, I can only guess at her sexual character
I bet she likes to be tied up, kissed and held tight,
whenever I've pictured us united it felt right

<When you develop an infatuation for someone
you always find a reason to believe that this is exactly
the person for you. It doesn't need to be a good reason.
Taking photographs of the night sky for example. Now
in the long run, that's just the kind of dumb irritating habit
that will cause you to split up... but in the haze of infatuation
it's just what you've been searching for all these years>

We've never spoken alone, in person or over the phone
I would've told her, had I been a little bolder or stoned
that I had a dream and she was in it,
and for the first time, I felt happy if for that minute
and I'll admit I woke up with an erection
then went for a walk in a world with no rejection
I'd love to sit and talk to her about our future
together and tell her that, "I really think you're cute, you're
everything I've been looking for in a better half"
maybe I should just let her know and then let her laugh
but I wouldn't put her on the defensive
I wouldn't want her to have to say it'd ruin the friendship
I'm a bit apprehensive, I could've swore that I fell
when every other girl just bores me to hell

<I'm attracted to gypsies, I'm attracted to witches
I'm attracted by the girls of wicca, getting wicked>

<You never really wanted me, I can see, yes I can see>

I'm nineteen years old, I'm a single white male
I'm a double headed coin, prayin to God for tail
but I'm not willing to gamble all I got for my emotions
I doubt that I could handle another drought amongst these oceans
potions... that's what I need
whip up a love potion number nine and some weed
is it just me? or is it hot in here?
I could call it an ice-breaker and offer a beer
I mean, after work. You can do this, you're not shy.
But I acted a jerk, didn't say hi when she walked by
not my... finest moment
I got by... on the tinyest hope in
my capability to fake nobility in the presence of a princess
sorry highness, I hope that we can put this behind us.
Let's go back to being strangers with secret identities
where the only lone rangers are the people with enemies.

<You never really wanted me, I can see, yes I can see>

I know what you want, I know what you need
I know that you never wanted me.

<You never really wanted me, I can see, yes I can see>
