A life sentence

I just like the way you smile
The way you walk
I like your style.
Why don’t you come and sit with me a while

For I’d like to know your name
And the town from which you came
I haven’t seen you here before
And my life is such a bore

Things change and I don’t know why
For people walk in and out my life
So why don’t you stay with me a while
Please don’t walk by
Please just give the thought of me and you a try.

If you new who I was
Maybe you would change your mind
For I’m the kind of person
Who could change your life

For it’s easy to see
That there’s a chance of you and me
And that you’d have so much fun
You’d run away with me
And it’s hard for me to pass up this chance
Of such a beautiful girl I’d like to ask to dance

Things change and I don’t know why
For people walk in and out my life
So why don’t you stay with me a while
Please don’t walk by
Please just give the thought of me and you a try.

And if I’d spoke these words
Maybe you wouldn’t have passed
For I was too nervous
And I lost my chance
For when it came to you and me
I was behind these bars you see
And you never gave me a second glance
Not even a second glance.
