Never Knew

She walks through the door
Like so many times before
But this time she had my head turning

Like a movie scene,
slow-motion dream
I wonder if she caught me smiling

We hug and sit
We do this quite a bit
Another lunch between two friends

Says sorry I'm late
I didn't mind the wait
She smiles at me and I start melting

'Cause I never knew
That when she smiles
She lights up the whole room

She tells me her day,
She's got a lot to say
I don't mind to hear her speak

The waiter passes by
Well that's okay we'll take our time
Cause there's not place I'd rather be

She tells a joke I've heard
But I pretend she's told me first
And then I laugh a bit too early

That's when I realize
I've been staring at her eyes
I wonder if she sees right through me

I never knew
Her eyes were such a pretty shade of blue

It's time to go
But little does she know
I don't really want to leave

We go our separate ways
And as she drives away
It all becomes so very clear to me

I never knew
I never knew
I never knew
That all this time I'd been falling for you
