Beth Crowley - The Fantasy Of You And Me

It's distracting
The rush that I get from
The sound of you laughing
And I wonder if maybe there
Could be a fraction
Of your smile
That's meant only for me

We're still strangers
I can already tell my heart is in danger
I'm ignoring the warning
That this could be painful
'Cause that smile
Is all I can see

If this played out
Like a book scene
You would catch my eye and
Come over to me
And I would know
Exactly what to say
Then turning to the next page

You'd ask me
What my name is
That's the moment when
The entire story changes
In the fantasy of you and me

You move closer
It's all I can do
Just to keep my composure
And I'm dying to find a way
To win you over
So you'll say
I'm the best thing that happened
To you all day

If this played out
Like a book scene
You would run up to me
As I was leaving
And have me put my number
In your phone
Then before I even got home

You'd start a conversation
And we'd both jump in without any hesitation
In the fantasy of you and me

But that's all this is
A reverie
So I'll pretend you don't have
An effect on me
While secretly it's nice to dream

If this played out
Like a book scene
I would skip ahead
To the happy ending
And even if it's too predictable
I'd still get the sequel

There's much more to the story
Than this chance encounter
'Cause that would just be boring
In the fantasy of you and me
