An Unknown Passion

I see him across the street
So proud, so tall
I see her across the street
So petite, so small

I see him across the street
Staring the other way
I see her across the street
Each and everyday

I see him across the street
Does he notice me?
There's a crowd that surrounds her
But its only her I see

Should I cross the street
And try to talk to him?
I want to care for her
Like a rare & precious gem

But I'm sure he has a lady
A lucky girl indeed
And I'm sure she has a fella
To care for all her needs

Or maybe he is single
And he's waiting there for me
Or maybe she is lonely
And she's waiting for us to be

But I could not face rejection
I can not face the fear
I can't handle humiliation
Oh that I could not bare

His love I'll always long for
And him I wish I met
Her touch I'll always yearn for
Her face I won't forget
