if I had known
i would have
called & we would enjoy
laughter, kisses and
days filled with fun
i never knew you
thought of me
i thought
your beauty was for other guys
like sports players
guys with fancy cars
i had low self esteem
still do
i wish i had known
you sometimes looked
at me and sent mental thoughts
for me to call
for an evening out
