Secret Admirer

I'm standing now

At a distance

You're in the corner of my eye

I watch you walk by

And I wonder

What is it that you think of

When you find me watching you

What is it that you feel then

When you turn to see me gaze

I'm standing now

Behind you

Just waiting for your smile

Just waiting for you to notice me

To approach me and say hi

And as I wait, I wonder

What is it that you thought of

When you wished to be noticed

To wait shyly at the side

And as I wonder

I suddenly notice you

In the corner of my eye

So I look up in surprise

I find you gazing at me mischievously 

A smile playing on your lips
