she sees him in the hallway, their eyes meet up just right
she tells her friends and the story begins, of a love that lasts a life
she wants to tell him how she feels, starts a love letter every night
then tears it up, and throws it out, cause it never comes out right (that's alright)
cause he starts walking over, in the middle of the night
he's been throwing pebbles, when she turns on the light
she goes to the window, he's waiting outside
small town girls across the world have been waiting for this night
she's had her own apartment, in the city for a while
and he stayed in that small town, trying to find his life
she lays up in her bedroom, almost every night
reading a book, and wishing he was, right there by her side (that's alright)
cause he starts driving over, in the middle of the night
she's waiting by the window, when he pulls into the drive
she answers the door, lets him inside
small town girls across the world have been waiting for this night
and everything feels just right, they unite, tonight
can't control this feeling inside, this fire
he rolls his head over, in the middle of the night
runs his fingers through her hair, he turns out the light
this was the feeling she felt, the very first time
small town girls across the world have been waiting for this night
