I saw you standing
In the rain
Idea planted
Efforts in vain
I couldn't see what was right in front of me
Til' it hit me in the head
Didn't get what you had said to me
Those words I'll never forget
From the side
Shouted your name
Told you I'm sorry
You looked away
You didn't see me
Or recognize
You saw right through me
Knew it on sight
I couldn't see what was right in front of me
Til' it hit me in the head
I couldn't see what was right in front of me
I let it fly right by instead
I couldn't see what was right in front of me
Til' it hit me in the head
I didn't get what you had said to me
Those words I'll never forget
I couldn't see what was right in front of me
Til' it hit me in the head
I couldn't see what was right in front of me
I let it fly right by instead
