LYRICS
Saw you in the bar
busy working hard
making all the drinks
who are you, what you thinking?
Observed you from afar
the way you hold yourself
Damn, you look good as hell

Ask you for a white wine
asking myself
How many girls leave you a note each night the way that I might?
If I can muster up the move tonight
Alright, I dare myself to do it
If I dare
But you smiled back at me, I swear

Wonder if all these people annoy you
wonder what things you might like to do
wonder if you could like me too
if I ever in my life get to talk to you
How old are you?
Do you have a girl at home?
Gonna order another wine
but I think you're going home

What's a girl to do?

Better make it fast
Catch you as you pass
In the staircase
Hi gorgeous face
So one chance is all I got
Stop you in the stairway
Oh my god
Stop you in the stairway, I forgot
all my words I wanted to say
stop you in the stairway as you leave
I probably forgot to breathe
Here's my number on a napkin
Praying you won't lose it or something
please don't throw it in a bin
don't misread my handwriting
gave you my number on a napkin
I said all the wrong things

But you smiled at me
Shake my hand
said "hey, nice to meet you"
oh your smile as I greet you
Damn those eyes
what a damn surprise
tonight

And you, you kept the napkin with my number on it
that night I thought I'd hear from you tomorrow
you so casually waited three days to do it
you think I like that, but I'm not that kinda girl no
So why don't you man up?
so long now I've been on my own
boring dates on which I've gone
there you are, there you come along
Beautiful stranger
I'm up writing songs...

Are you the type
to kiss & write
to meet & light
some fire then disappear out if sight?

Should have known
should have known
with someone handsome & elusive like you
I would end up alone

"Who you looking at?"
the stranger next to me said
No good at hiding my
obsession, attraction, infatuation
even they could tell
Oh well
I was looking at you
at your eyes blue
