She thought she was in love
With who, she did not know
She tried her best
She would not rest
Until her true love showed
She thought she had found him
At least a thousand times
She didn't find him
She never would
Because she wouldn't change her mind
He had watched her
Watched her try her luck
He wanted her to know him
For who he really was
Not the shy guy in the corner
Who had never been in love
He never caught her
No matter what he tried
He lived alone
Sad and cold
As the days went passing by
She dreamed of him every night
As she wasted her life away
Her three kids and a cheating man
She would never be okay
He saw her at the grocery store
She almost said hello
He kept walking right past her
She had her kids in tow
He got those feelings
She did too
He could never forget
She should have known
He always knew
They wouldn't have a regret
She had a crumbled marriage
She got the kids in the divorce
She had the house
She had the car
But nothing was truly hers
He was a carpenter
She called him on a whim
He checked her porch
He fixed it up and then left with a grin
She didn't know why she stopped him
He didn't know why he stopped
He no longer had to watch her
Watch her try her luck
She knew him for who he really was
Not just the shy guy in the corner
Who had always been in love
