I've never known someone like this
she's got a look i can't resist
i know in just a lil while
i'll be the one that makes her smile

her parents say that im no good
i dont come from her neighbourhood
oh before too long now see
oh what she sees in me

but when she holds my hand
i think she understands
she knows it

its true
it might take a little while
ill be the one who makes her smile

but when she holds my hand
i think she understands
she knows

she knows all my hopes and dreams
she means everything to me

someday im gonna make her see
how good together we can be
its true
it might take a little time
one day im gonna make her mine

but when she holds my hand
i think she understands
she knows it
