I watch you walk down the hall
Completely unaware of me
Thinking of the crappy poetry
I plan to write for you today
Oh, if only you knew
About the pages of notebook paper
I've wasted on you
I wonder how much you'd laugh
[Chorus]
I'm just a silly girl
With a flower in one hand
And a handful of dreams in the other
Just waiting for them to come true
I watch the words form on the page
Much too easily, it seems
Resisting the urge to tear it all up
And watch the scraps fly away
Oh, if only people could
read these words, if only
I'd let them fly
I'm not as dumb as I sound, right?
[Chorus]
I watch the stars
Wishing, wishing
Watch as they twinkle over me
I lie here in the grass, waiting
Oh, if only I dared
To voice these thoughts aloud
But we all know, now
They'll just remain unsaid
[Chorus]
So here's to all the silly girls out there
The ones who dared to dream
Don't give up the flower you hold
One day you might see it bloom
