Hardly Ever Know

[Hook]
You'd hardly ever know it
But you've been on my mind all day
What would you say if I had told you
That I want you would you think it's okay?

You'd hardly ever know it
But baby this is not a new thing
What would you say if I had told you
That I really hope you feel the same way

[Verse 1]
Wondrous
I can't find the words to express
How I felt on the day we met
Man this can't be no accident

There she goes in my class again
There she goes with that laugh again
Taking all of my attention man
If there's a test in class I'm not passing it

Couldn't fight the feeling like a pacifist
But I never had the guts to really act on it
She got me up late at night
Now I can't sleep laying on my mattress

Thinking about us just imagining
How I'm gonna ask you when I get the chance
Now I'm practicing back in class again
Hoping what I have to say is adequate

Now I'm not one to be nervous but I'm panicking
I walk into the room I'm just standing there
I can see you, your attractiveness
Is at an equivalent to some magnets

So I check my fit and I guess I'm fresh
I better go sit so I find my desk
Ripped up my script, let me check my breath
I need some gum I hope I have some left

So I pick up my bag reach down and check
Thank you Lord, last in the pack
And since I'm late I'm seated in the back
But I can see the clock for the end of class

And I can see your smile from a mile away
I really love your smile did I mention that?
That's the end of class, I was in my head
Until I tapped her on the shoulder, froze up and said

[Hook]
You'd hardly ever know it
But you've been on my mind all day
What would you say if I had told you
That I want you would you think it's okay?

You'd hardly ever know it
But baby this is not a new thing
What would you say if I had told you
That I really hope you feel the same way

[Verse 2]
Then she paused for what seemed like a couple months
It was more like two seconds but
Those seconds seemed to be just enough
To make me second guess everything I'd done

Like aww man did I mess it up?
Did I say too little, did I say to much?
Palms sweating, the thoughts they rush
All the thoughts of us turning right to dust

Time is stuck, I wish I could run
But I figure I should stay around
Like somebody pressed pause for my heartbeat stop
I just gave her my heart, watch her break it now

As for my chances, they're gone
I think I came on too strong
But that's what I thought, that's in my head
Because in real life she smiled and said

[Hook]
You'd hardly ever know it
But you've been on my mind all day
What would you say if I had told you
That I want you would you think it's okay?

You'd hardly ever know it
But baby this is not a new thing
What would you say if I had told you
That I really hope you feel the same way
