That the world is not my playgroundThere are other things that matter

ONE DAY SHE'LL LOVE ME
I'd never imagined beforeThat the world could be turned on it's headI'd never have thoughtTo be here in this placeI'd never have dreamt that in loveI'd be lost and so easily ledI guess I was caught-y that hint of a smile on her face
I thought I was happy beforeWhen my life was as easy as a pie-ut that was the past/f an ignorant youthI'm falling in love with the girl-ut I'm forced to be living a lieAnd she'd never love meIf she knew the truth
Is it asking too muchIf I pray for a miracle miracleThat one day she'll love me/ne day she'll say I care

And one by one I didn't anticipate feeling the power of loveIn this way
And day by day We've never been closer than thisAnd I find myself daring to pray
We'll find these tender ways of loveImpossible to disobey
/ne day she'll love me
/ne day he'll say I love you
And I will love her
