I walked home, you drove off.
you probably slept more than i did.
the monkey wrench inside my chest
told me not to run.
from a stranger to a stranger:
"why don't we talk a while?
I've got nothing to lose
but the chance to make you smile."
just be calm, just be cool,
and i won't make any sudden moves.
and while you wait
I'll try to say a joke or two you haven't heard.
from a stranger to a stranger:
"we both could do much worse.
so i hope that one of these nights
you'll use that number in your purse
cuz lonliness is who i know.
perhaps he's someone you know,
a mutual friend of ours."
I'm a nerd, you're a queen.
so how about a date?
i didn't know you saw the show.
i thought i saw you leave.
from a stranger to a stranger:
"I could use a ride back home."
I could point out the stars
and we won't have to sleep alone, alone.
this lonliness is who i know.
perhaps he's someone you know.
there's a million words
that i've been saving for a rainy day,
and a million tricks that i could use,
and i'd use them all at once
if that's what i have to do.
i'll find a way to make you stay,
at least until i find another reason, anyway.
i haven't felt this way
since my first day of school.
it's a wish for me to make history with you, with you.
