If he only knew
If he only felt
Outside that diner
What was in my heart
If he only heard
If he only saw
Standing there in public
What was in my heart
Why did I turn around
Why did I not just leave
I am in love
I have always been this way
I smiled at him
If he only knew
A little tear comes,
Always to my right eye first,
My heart jumps,
Then warms.
He is he, and miles between us.
He stokes the head of a pidgeon,
And sets it free,
To land upon my windowsil.
Could I but shrink the space,
Turn back years
Shout a warning,
I would.
No matter now.
He loves me.
