Songcatcher In the Street

songcatcher in the street and i see you walking by
(oh how i wish that i could talk to you)
i suddenly have a taste for a fresh bagel and hot cocoa
(oh how i wish i could walk with you)
you have a way about yourself that quietly commands and demands respect
(i wanna buy you an ice cream cone)
you have a way about yourself that just clean stops a room
(i really would like to walk you home)

songcatcher in the street and i watch your side hips switch
(i wonder what type of dances you can do)
i have these fantasies of certain places where you can slowly shake your tush
(i wonder what true blue romance will do to you)
you have a style about yourself that captivates captivation
(i wanna buy you an oreo shake)
you have a style about yourself that inspires happy elation
(i wanna ask you out on a date)

songcatcher in the street and i see him kissing you
(i think i wanna puke)
all my hopes go down the drain and i am strangely missing you
(i wish it was a fluke)
oh, the way you bless his love makes all flowers bloom
(i guess he feels like the man)
i just silently pass by and just him a different tune
(i have imagined all i can)

songcatcher in the street i dream about you
(i wanna be your king)
what i would give just to express just one hint of a clue
(with you i wanna do my thing)
however in reality he beat me to the punch
(left uppercut and all)
wow, how i would react if i had the floor to chance my hunch
(in love with you i would fall)

songcatcher in the street and i watch you pass by
(i just repeat each step)
i wish that i could let you know that you are my greatest high
(you would upgrade my rep)
the reality is you will never know me
(that is the saddest truth)
to get even a hint of your attention...oh God just show me
(she would invigorate my youth)
