Nathan Parent — Parallel Figures lyrics

Lyrics

As I was walking by, I noticed you and I
Were parallel figures: matching in every way,
But never intersecting. Right then, everything changed
And now I’m never letting go.
Of the thoughts I hold dear, you see, it’s sometimes clearer:
Changing course and appearing in the different sectors of a world.
You know, hey, I think it’s getting better.
Is it true when they say, «It's better to have loved than lost,
Then never to have loved at all?»
I say, «Hey!» to the people that pass my side.
They don’t know that I’m in love with the girl who’s on my mind.
By the way, did you know I have a lot to share?
So, maybe if you come by later we
can talk about it during the After-glow.
So, maybe it was true love at first
site. But, then I stumble as I look back,
I’m falling in through the cracks and
realizing that I don’t want to be alone anymore.
Don’t you see that I’m just as dumb as they come these days?
But, I can’t laze about if you are here.
Give a wink of your eye and I’ll come running your way.
I just want for you to say, that you want me too!
