Heard it, just exactly what did it mean?

[E] And Justin Haywood sang this song.
[B] Here, let's do a little imagining here.
You're a [N] young man or a young woman, and you have a _ need,
[E] much of a need to get [C] ahead in [Ab] the workforce and get a [Gm] promotion,
but it seems like it never can come.
One Saturday morning, we'll say it's a [B] beautiful morning,
you walk out on the [N] street, and all at once,
the most beautiful _ face, or handsome face, meets your eyes.
And you know that it's absolutely _ love at first sight.
And when you realize that, that person is at the top of the line as far as society [Ab] and wealth.
And you know it [Em] could never work.
That's what this is about.

_ _ [F] _ _ Letters [C] I've written, _ _ _ [E] never meaning to [Am] send.
[Dm] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ Beauty [G] I'd always _ [Am] missed with these eyes [G] before.
_ _ [F] _ _ [C] Just what the truth is, _ [E] I can't say [Am] _
anymore.

[C] Just what I'm going through, [E] _ they can't [Am] understand.
_ _ _ _ Some [G] try to tell me, _ [A] _ [Am] thoughts they cannot [G] defend.
_ _ [F] _ _ Just [C] what you want to be, [E] _ you can be [Am] in there. _ _ _ _ _
