Falling for you, did you ever see me
Watching from periphery?
I was playing another game
I hoped you catch on all the same
Falling from view, did you ever touch me
Floating through your potpourri?
I thought I felt your fingers once
After waiting all these months
But I was wrong, so wrong
That was just another song you wrote, for another girl
And I hoped the day could be
When you'd write a song for me
But it never came, I thank you all the same
But I'll go now, so you won't know how much
I've fallen for you, pointless trying to be a man
Boy, you don't know if you can
I thought, I knew you well enough
But your walls are still too tough
But I was wrong, so wrong
That was just another song you wrote, for another girl
And I hoped the day could be
When you'd write a song for me
But it never came, I thank you all the same
But I'll go now, so you won't know how much
I thought about you all the time
Walking 'round, the Guggenheim like a rhyme, in my mind
There you are, in my car but we don't drive very far
To the beach, out of reach, next to me, my fantasy
Falling for you, did you ever see me
Watching from periphery?
I was playing another game
I hoped you catch on all the same
