You'll Never Fall (not for me)

Location

I watch from afar,

And listen in silence.

The sound of your guitar,

It makes my heart melt.

 

But you’ll never fall.

Not for a girl like me.

I’m timid and shy.

I don’t want to waste your time.

 

I can’t help but wonder,

What would happen

If ever you’d give me

The time of day.

 

But you’ll never fall.

Not for a girl like me.

I’m timid and shy.

I don’t want to waste your time.

 

You’re everything I see,

Everything I’ve dreamed.

And yet somehow,

I’m still here alone.

 

But you’ll never fall.

Not for a girl like me.

I’m timid and shy.

I don’t want to waste your time.

 

You talk to other girls.

Hardly talk to me.

I smile when you laugh.

And still you don’t see.

 

You’ll never fall.

Not for me.

I’m too timid. Too shy.

I won’t waste your time.
