How Was I
To Know

Well I hoped and prayed,
Loved you from afar
I cried,
I dreamed,
I wished on every star
But nothin' I'd do
Got me closer to you
So I locked
All my feeling inside

Then one night
Across a crowded room
You looked my way,
Your eyes held something new
You walked right up to me
And smiled tenderly
And your words
Came as such a surprise

Well how was I to know
You never let it show
What a beauty
Like you might see
In a poor boy like me
How could I have seen
You walk out of my dreams
Shine your light
On my sleepin' heart
And into my soul
How was I to know

You took my hand
And led me out the door
We talked and we laughed
'Bout all the times before
When two lonely people
So much in love
Passed like ships
In the night

Well how was I to know
You never let it show
What a beauty
Like you
Might see
In a poor boy like me
How could I have seen
You walk out of my dreams
Shine your light
On my sleepin' heart
And into my soul
How was I to know

How could I have seen
You walk out of my dreams
Shine your light
On my sleepin' heart
And into my soul
How was I to know

I know I never let it show,
but now baby,
I am screaming it
from the rooftops,
I know that's not good enough,
but until I see you again,
which will be soon,
it will have to be...
