Why do I feel the way I do?
Is it just because of you?
I see you once again, this day.
Why is it that I feel this way?
I simply can’t explain it.
All I know is that I can’t forget it.
I see your face, your smile, your eyes -
There’s something that cannot be disguised.
It all comes back to me again
Of how I felt about you
way back when.
It’s as though you were right there
next to me.
Each time I’d turn to glance
everywhere I’d always chance
to see you standing there behind me.
All evening long,
you’d be talking with someone,
and you’d be right there
so close to me.
Then, when you graciously greeted me,
and gave me your hand
I felt those feelings inside me
all over again.
Why do I feel this way, again?
