don't look now
But there he goes
all i want
and all i know
it might be his hair
it might be what i see when i look in his eyes
but i know he's a small-town sUperman
in disguise
and sure, he's the brightest sTar
and i just come crashing down everY single time
but i can't seem to stop wishing upon shooting stars that
sOmeday he'll be mine, that
tall boy in the sneakers
just tryna find a place in this world
jUst like me
if everyone else could only see
he's not as bad as he seems
and for all you knoW this is all a dream
i hear that
this is all a phasE
but it's the most endeaRing thing
to see a smile on his face
and daddy tells me, "he's a mistake;
he's gonna break your heart till you can't feel anything Else."
and mama says he's a wasTe of time
and that there's better to find but
i'm in love with that
tall boy whO loves to read
and has indie records on repeat
just like me
if everyone else could only see
he's better than he seems
and for all you know
he's a dream
a dream, yeah
Out of my reach and
maybe i'll never hold him
but that's why i wish, why i hoPe
why i drEam
of that
tall boy to whom I'm just a dreameR
who could make all of my hopes burn
he knows me
but not well enough to see
that i Feel this all so bittersweet
and that he's in every one of my dreams
i'm just another stupid girl in his Eyes
but i'm just hoping one day, he'll realize
that we Could do better than iT seems
and that we could make reality of this dream
