One Day lyrics

She stares at her ceiling once again
With a hundred thoughts
Maybe he knows who I am?
Probably not
She walks down the hall with her head down low
Scared to meet his eyes
Even when she hears his voice, she's swarmed with butterflies
It's impossible to get you off my mind
I think about a hundred thoughts and you are 99
I've understood that you will never be mine
And that's fine, I'm just breaking inside
He always walks the crowded halls and he's blinded by this light
A girl who keeps her head down low and never shows her eyes
He's tried to talk to her but there's no easy way
'Cause every time he raises his voice, she runs away
Oh, it's impossible to get you off my mind
I think about a hundred thoughts and you are 99
I've understood that you will never be mine
And that's fine, I'm just breaking inside
One day, maybe she'll stay
And start to head over his way
And one day, she'll look into his eyes
And instead of breaking, she'll call him mine
One day, he'll grab her by the waist
And force them to meet face to face
One day, he'll look into her eyes
And say that, "You're my only light"
It's impossible to get you off my mind
I think about a hundred thoughts and you are 99
I understand that you will never be mine
And that's fine, I'm just breaking inside
