While Sittin' At the Light

I wrote this song for my daughter's birthday to be sung by her bf and his band. Happy birthday, Erin!

                      Rolled up to the street light and there she sat
               Rappin ' 'er fingers to the beat on her dash
               Where did she come from, hidin' in the world?
               How could it be I've never seen this girl?

               Sportin' a cigarette 'neath the sleeve of her top
               Bumper sticker says she's a fan of SlipKnot
               Smiled at me as I rounded the curb
               Had to get a second look so I threw it in reverse
               Shouted out a tune to me as I caught her eye
               No doubt about it she's just gotta have a guy

  (chorus)

               Don't know what she's doin'
               Don't know if it's right
               Don't care I'm gonna stare
               While sittin' at the light
               Is she thinkin' the same thing?
               Is it love at first sight?
               I'm gonna get to know her if it takes all night

               Chocolate eyes and caramel hair
               She's a beauty in the making
               And I just gotta stare
               A captivating smile like she knows what's up
               Wanna show her I mean business
               And she's gonna make it tough

               Light turns green and she's takin' off
               Don't wanna lose sight of her down the block
               Wanna take her home
               I grab my phone
               Snap a picture of her
               Before she's gone

               (repeat chorus)
