When He Sees Me lyrics

I stick with real things

Usually facts and figures

When information's in its place I minimize the guessing game

Guess what?

I don't like guessing games or when I feel things

Before I know the feelings

How am I supposed to operate if I'm just tossed around by fate?

Like on an unexpected date

With a stranger who might

Talk too fast

Or ask me questions about myself before I've decided that

He can ask me questions about myself

He might sit too close or call the waiter by his first name

Or eat Oreos

But eat the cookie before the cream but what scares me the most...

What scares me the most...

Is what if when he sees me

What if he doesn't like it?

What if he runs the other way and I can't hide from it

What happens then if

When he knows me

He's only disappointed

What if I give myself away to only get it given back

I couldn't live with that

So I'm just fine inside my shell-shaped mind

This way I get the best view

So when he sees me, I want him to

I'm not defensive

I'm simply being cautious

I can't risk reckless dating

Due to my miscalculating why

A certain suitor stands in line I've seen in movies

Most made for television

You cannot be too careful when it comes to sharing your life

I could end up a miserable wife

He could be criminal

Some sort of psychopath who escaped from an

Institution somewhere where they don't have girls

He could have masterminded some way to find me

He could be color blind

How untrustworthy is that? He could be less than kind

Or even worse he could be very nice have lovely eyes

And make me laugh

Come out of hiding

What do I with that?

Oh god

What if when he sees me

I like him and he knows it

What if he opens up a door and I can't close it

What happens then

If when he holds me

My heart is set in motion

I'm not prepared for that I'm scared of breaking open

But still I can't help from hoping

To find someone to talk to

Who likes the way I am

Someone who when he sees me, wants to again
