Here's a story of a girl
Living in a lonely world
A hidden note
A secret crush
A little boy who doesn't talk enough
Well, I'm standing in the crowd
And when you smile, I check you out
But you don't even know my name
This class seems too short, and the subject barely holds my interest, it seems all my focus is on you.
Just like any other day, I watch from my seat from across the aisle. I feel as if I am gazing upon a bright star, a brilliant, unattainable star. Always within sight, but far out of reach.
I can't help myself, I often dream about what it would feel like to run my hands through your unruly black mess of hair. To breathe in the breath you take. To have your arms wrapped around me while my head lies against your strong chest. How would it feel to have your emerald green eyes staring back into mine?
I'm not like the rest
I don't care if you're the best
You see it, it's all the same to me
You just be who you want to be
It's all the same to me
They say you're the boy-who-lived, you're famous here and you don't even see why, and you hate it. You have the girls swooning and you don't even see it. I like how modest you can be, how you try and try to slink into the shadows, but you'll never be able to hide who you are.
You act shy when you think you've been given too much attention. But I want you to know that I don't care about the fame. You could go unseen by the world and I would still be in love with you. Your strength, your courage, everything about you is what I want for me. And I know what lies ahead in your destiny, but I'm not scared, I just hope that I'm in it.
I watch as Lavendar Brown batts her eyelashes at you, a sweet smile on her face as she asks to borrow a quill. I can't help but grin as you hand her your spare, without a second glance. She can pout all she wants, but she has to know that she's not your type. She's so pretty, but that's never enough, she has to have the brains and personality. She has to be unique and special.
That makes me wonder…
If I cut my hair
If I change my clothes
Will you notice me?
If I bite my lip
If i say hello
Will you notice me
What's it gonna take for you to see
I want you to notice me
I'll get you to notice me
My mind is reeling of possibilities of what I could do to make you see me. I'm the shy girl who sits across the aisle from you. I notice you, but you never see me. If I changed everything about me, would it help?
I'm almost as smart as Hermione Granger, almost as cute as Parvarti Patil. I am just as brave as you are, and just as fun as the Weasley twins. I'm all these things and so much more, but I'm still always true to myself, I'm just me.
You pack up your bag, putting away your quills and parchment. Grabbing your things you quickly strolll out of the room. I watch you go as you pass right by my desk, and I smile at you, but sadly…
I'm the girl you never see
I'm the one you really need
So don't you get me wrong
You better make your move
Before the moment's gone
