He Was There
She was sitting in class, painting her nails
He watched her every move, he could tell
She never knew he was there
She wore the latest styles and knew what was cool
He was tall and shy, the smartest in the school
She didn't care
He looked forward to seeing her every day
At lunch time, and as he sat down
She would leave
On a dance floor, and lost in the crowd
He got the courage to hold out his hand and smile
She said "In your dreams"
He was there
She hardly noticed
He was invisible
And not the coolest guy
He was there
And he mattered
All she had to do
Was just return a smile
Ten years and three kids later
She was working in a grocery store
Her marriage falling apart at the seams
Tall & shy turned into dark & handsome
A wealthy lawyer with all the answers
Every woman's dream
One day she passed him on the street
He stole her heart instantly
She stared in disbelief
She was wearing worn out clothes
Her kids were screaming and out of control
And she smiled but he said "In your dreams"
He was there
She never noticed
He had been invisible
And after all this time
He was there
And he mattered
It took her years to know it
He'd been there all the time...........
And all she had to do,
Was just return a smile
Ele Estava Lá
Ela estava sentada na aula, pintando as unhas
Ele observava cada movimento, ele podia perceber
Ela nunca soube que ele estava lá
Ela usava as últimas tendências e sabia o que era legal
Ele era alto e tímido, o mais inteligente da escola
Ela não se importava
Ele esperava ansiosamente para vê-la todo dia
Na hora do almoço, e quando ele se sentava
Ela ia embora
Na pista de dança, perdida na multidão
Ele teve coragem de estender a mão e sorrir
Ela disse "Nos seus sonhos"
Ele estava lá
Ela mal percebeu
Ele era invisível
E não era o cara mais legal
Ele estava lá
E ele importava
Tudo que ela tinha que fazer
Era apenas retribuir um sorriso
Dez anos e três filhos depois
Ela estava trabalhando em um mercado
Seu casamento desmoronando aos pedaços
O alto e tímido virou o moreno e charmoso
Um advogado rico com todas as respostas
O sonho de toda mulher
Um dia ela passou por ele na rua
Ele roubou seu coração instantaneamente
Ela olhou em descrença
Ela estava vestindo roupas surradas
Seus filhos estavam gritando e fora de controle
E ela sorriu, mas ele disse "Nos seus sonhos"
Ele estava lá
Ela nunca percebeu
Ele tinha sido invisível
E depois de todo esse tempo
Ele estava lá
E ele importava
Levou anos para ela perceber isso
Ele esteve lá o tempo todo...........
E tudo que ela tinha que fazer,
Era apenas retribuir um sorriso
