You  could be sad but never torn
You  saw the light when it was on
You  never turned or looked away
Your  eyes were focused, mine were grey
Your  sentences were concentrated
You  made your points so understated
Where  I would mumble, you would say
Your  eyes were focused, mine were grey
I  made up conversations with  my symbolic language
 Saying everybody wants  to be like you
 But I'd  rather fall  in love with you
You  got the picture from the start
You  saw right through me in the dark
You  saw that I couldn't behave
with  eyes so focused, yet so frail
I  chose you  from a million
You  were the choice  of billions
wishing  they would try  to be like you
 But I'd  rather fall  in love with you
Ba-ba-ba  baa-ba...
You  questioned men and called them whores
But  you would never burn your bras
You  held your head up in the rain
Your  eyes were focused, mine were grey
You  had relationships that worked
and  yet experience with jerks
So  well adjusted, but with charm
Your  eyes were focused and yet calm
I'm  fairly realistic
But  my thought are out  of lip-sync
when  I say that  I'm not one of those
 who pass  you by and fall  in love with you
 who pass  you by and fall  in love with you
 who pass  you by and fall  in love with you
 I'll  pass you by and  fall in love with
Ba-ba-ba  baa-ba...
