When I see you on the street, I lose my concentration. Just the thought that we
|
might meet creates anticipation.
|
|
Won't you look my way once before you go and my eyes will say what you ought to
|
know. Well I've been thinkin' about you day and night...and I don't know if
|
it'll work out right...but somehow I think that it just might...if we try.
|
|
Faces come and faces go in circular rotation. But something yearns within to
|
grow beyond infatuation.
|
|
Won't you look my way once before you go and my eyes will say what you ought to
|
know. Well you've got me standin' deaf and blind...cause I see love as just a
|
state of mind...and who knows what it is that we might find...if we try.

(Bridge)
|
|
You're walking a different direction from most people I've met. You're givin'
|
me signs of affection I don't usually get. I don't want you to pledge your
|
future the future's not yours to give. Just stand there a little longer and let
|
me watch while you live.
|
|
'Cause when I see you on the street, I lose my concentration. And just the
|
thought that we might meet creates anticipation.
|
|
Won't you look my way once before you go and my eyes will say what you ought to
|
know. Well I've been thinking about you day and night...and I don't know if it
|
will work out right...but somehow I think that it just might...if we try.
|
Somehow I think that it just might if we try. Yes somehow I think that it just
|
might if we try.

Note - Don would often change the last chorus when he performed the song live.
|
The words were something like "Won't you look my way once before you go and my
|
eyes will say what you ought to know. It'd be so nice to see it all work
|
out...cause that's what fantasies are all about..."
