Across the street your smile broke, like a wave upon my face, you didn't notice me at all 
 E                                     C 
Across the street I saw you, with some other pretty face 
G                                             D 
I loved you then, I love you now. I loved you then, I love you now 
                A                                       C

I had to take my chance and grab the moment by it's ears, not be just some fly on your wall
