[A] .
.
[E] [A] .
When I see you on the street I [E] lose my [A] concentration .
Just the thought that we might meet creates anticipation .
Won't [Em] you look my way [D] once before you go.
[G] And my eyes will say [Bm] what you ought to know.
Well I've been [Am] thinking about you [C] day [D] and night.
And [Am] I don't know if it'll work [D] out right.
But somehow [Am] I think that it [D] just might.
If we [G] try.
[F] [E] .
[A] Faces come and faces go in circular rotation .
But something yearns within to grow beyond infatuation .
Won't [Em] you look my way once [D] before you go.
[G] And my eyes will say what [Bm] you ought to know.
[Am] Well you've got me standing deaf [D] and blind.
[Am] Cause I see love is just a state [D] of mind.
And who [Am] knows what it is that we [D] might find.
If [G] we try .
[Gm] You're walking [C] a different direction [Gm] from most people [C] I've met.
[Am] You're giving me [D] signs of affection [Am] I don't [D] usually get .
[Em] I don't want you [Bm] to flinch your future.
[Am] The [D] future's not yours [G] to give .
[Em] Just stand there [Bm] a little longer.
And let [Am] me watch [F] while you [E] live.
[A] Cause .
[D] [A] .
when I see you on the street I lose my concentration.
And just the thought that we might meet creates anticipation.
Won't [Em] you look my way once [D] before you go.
And [G] my eyes will say [Bm] what you ought to know.
Well [Am] I've been thinking about you day [D] and night.
And I [Am] don't know if it'll work out [D] right.
[Am] But somehow I think that it just [D] might.
If we [G] try .
[F] Somehow [E] [Am] I think that it just [D] might.
If we [G] try.
[F] [E] Yes, [Am] somehow I think that it just [D] might.
If [G] we try .
[C] [G] .
