She Thought She Was in Love

Love Love Love

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
