[Intro]
[Acoustic guitar fingerpicking]
[Jangly electric guitar]
[Melodic bass]
[Soft three-part vocal harmony]

[Verse 1]

There's a girl I see each morning
Walking slowly through the rain
With a ribbon in her dark hair
And a smile I can't explain

She never knows I'm watching
From the corner of the street
And somehow every Monday
Makes the week feel incomplete

[Harmony Response]
(Oh, she never knows...)
No, she never knows...

[Verse 2] [Call and response]

I've imagined words to tell her
I've rehearsed them late at night
But whenever she comes near me
Every word just leaves my mind

She has sunlight in her laughter
And a softness in her eyes
If I had the nerve to meet her
I might finally realize

[Harmony Response]
(What would you say?)
I don't know...
(Would you say hello?)
Maybe so...

[Pre-Chorus]
[Strings and Mellotron begin subtly]

Every day I tell myself
Tomorrow I'll be brave
(really?)
But tomorrow comes and goes
(oh no)
And I'm still standing in the same place

[Chorus]
[Full melodic pop arrangement]
[Lead vocal with layered harmony]

She's the one I wait to see
She's the face that follows me
Through the busy streets and passing cars
She's the brightest of my little stars

And though she doesn't know my name
I wouldn't have it any other way
For now I'll keep this secret heart
And watch her from afar

[Instrumental]
[Jangly electric guitar melody]
[Mellotron flute counterline]

[Verse 3]

This morning feels much brighter
I arrive before the crowd
I've got something I can tell her
And I'll finally say it out loud

Then I see her by the corner
And she's smiling as she walks
But she's holding someone's hand now
And they're sharing private thoughts

[Band Harmony]
Oh...

[Lead]
I guess I came too late...

[Band Harmony]
(Too late...)

[Bridge]
[Arrangement drops to acoustic guitar and piano]

Maybe she's the reason
I was always meant to dream
Maybe some things look much better
From a distance than they seem

And if love is meant for someone
Then it doesn't have to be mine
I can still remember seeing her
And thinking she was beautiful

[Build]
[Mellotron strings swell]
[Tambourine enters]
[Full harmony vocals]

[Final Chorus]
[Full band]
[Three-part harmony]

She's the one I used to wait to see
She's the face that follows me
And though she's walking with somebody
I'll remember what I saw

She never knew my secret
She never heard me say her name
But for a little while each morning
She made every day the same

[Outro][Call and response]
[Acoustic guitar]
[Soft vocal harmony]

[Lead]
There's a girl I see each morning...

[Band]
(Oh, that girl...)

[Lead]
And I never knew her...

[Band]
)Never knew her...)

[Lead]
But she made me dream...

[All]
(She made me dream...)
