I've never known someone like this
she's got a look I can't resist
I know in just a little while
I'll be the one that makes her smile
Her parents say that I'm no good
I don't come from her neighborhood
before too long they'll see
oh just what she sees in me
but when she holds my hand
I think she understands
she knows it
it's true it might take a little while
i'll be the one that makes her smile
but when she holds my hand
I think she understands
she knows it
she knows all my hopes and dreams
she means everything to me
someday I'm gonna make her see
how good together we can be
it's true it might take a little time
one day I'm gonna make her mine
but when she holds my hand
I think she understands
she knows it
