You seek quality, not quantity, that's what I've accepted gracefully.nSo I smile happilynas you slip a pretty girl your number right in front of me.nAnd I'd like to see you lighter, a little less gloom in your face,nand as much as I would have loved a chance to try, it'll never be my place.nnSo I stop to wonder what this feeling would sound like for sure,nbut I know that my countless songsndon't compare to a stranger's simple word.nnOne step and you were taken, a smile was all she had to do,nand you know I can't really blame you 'cause I'd noticed her before, too.nAnd if you never want what you have, then you'll never want me,nregardless of who I am or the things that I think.nnSo I stop to wonder what this feeling would sound like for sure,nbut I know my countless songsndon't compare to a stranger's simple word.nnAnd you know if I were a little different, things might be a little different,nbut then I wouldn't be myself, and this might not seem as real.nAnd you know the closer I get to you,nthe farther away I feel.nAnd the only question in the mix was if you felt the sparknnot for your permission to kiss you in the dark.nBut I guess I was just deluded, so forget everything I said.nIt must have been some fantastical dreamnthat I thought up all alone in my head.nnAnd if I stopped wondering what this feeling would sound like for sure...
