Oh, I`m telling you,
she carried sunlight from the morning
down the sidewalks after noon.
My eyes were glued like to the ending of a story.
Cute as a fairytale
she could hail a bus on Broadway
but when I finally heard my Que
I forgot my line was: "Hello, nice to finally meet you."
Oh well.
Someday, she will know my name
If I`m not too late
Someday, before I`m old and gray
Here we go next day
Same time and I`ll let you guess the place.
That`s right it was the same. Good for you.
you must feel cooler than the rain in June.
Now quiet, here she comes.
Testing 1...2...ready...go. I yelled "Fairytale it`s me!"
(Not out loud of course, are you kidding I`m not ready.)
listen,
Someday, she will know my name
If I`m not too late
Someday, before I`m old and gray
She will love me
Set your watches here she comes
3...2...1...oh c`mon, c`mon what`s going on?
She should have been here by now
But now she`s gone.
Just like the chance I had and lost
But when I turned to crawl away
I heard her voice behind me say...
"Today, I`d like to know your name,
if I`m not too late
Today, before I`m old and gray"
Today is the day she will love me
