The Loneliest Corner In the Whole World

I caught a glimpse of you from the corner of my eye.
You bared a mark of birth at the corner of your eye.

I sat there trying to show that I didn't know where to go.
I wanted to let you know you had a special glow.

  But I sat there idle,
  knowing I would never make a move.

So I leave you alone, you leave me alone, and we remain alone.
Everyday I grow colder and older, like a stone.

Ha yeah. If you're given a chance you might as well take it.
