Lyrics
When I saw you, Pullin' back your strawberry hair, Your blue eyes caught my dumbfounded stare, Your awkward smile made my face burn for days. But I was stupid, I closed my eyes and ran away, Afraid of what you might have to say, 'Bout a kid who ain't perfect no matter what I try. I keep on seeing you all around, Reminding me that I've got empty hands. But I hope if I just keep on making sound, Maybe someday I might get some kinda chance. To say, Hello beautiful, I just, I don't know, I don't usually do this, But I just wanted to say hello. Would you maybe like, To go out tonight? Promise I'm not crazy, I just want a chance if it's alright. So what do you say, Wanna make a guys day? Just gimme your hand, Baby it'll be okay. Hello beautiful, I just, I dont know, I don't usually do this, But I just wanted to say hello. Later that night, I toss and turn lyin' in my bed, Pictures of you playin' in my head, It's three AM and my heart's killing my mind. But my alarm starts screaming in my ear, Forcing me to break free from that trance. The new days light makes you just disappear, But tomorrow night I'll get a second chance, To say, Hello beautiful, I just, I don't know, I don't usually do this, But I just wanted to say hello. Would you maybe like, To go out tonight? Promise I'm not crazy, I just want a chance if it's alright. So what do you say, Wanna make a guys day? Just gimme your hand, Baby it'll be okay. Hello beautiful, I just, I dont know, I don't usually do this, But I just wanted to say hello. Consider this my way to say hello. Hello beautiful, I just, I don't know, I don't usually do this, But I just wanted to say hello. Would you maybe like, To go out tonight? Promise I'm not crazy, I just want a chance if it's alright. So what do you say, Wanna make a guys day? Just gimme your hand, Baby it'll be okay. Hello beautiful, I just, I dont know, I don't usually do this, But I just wanted to say hello. Hello beautiful, I just, I dont know, I don't usually do this, But I just wanted to say hello.
