Quiet
and shy
Never caught anyones eye
Head down
A withdrawn look that sat in my face
I waited
...and i waited
but no one ever came
My prince charming
Never came
and I sat there
and I wondered
...Why?
Then, I finally opened my heart
I opened my mind
My soul
...and then
the girl with no one
Got someone
On record
I proved to myself
That if you open your heart up to the rest of the world
Other's will follow
I opened up my closed eyes
and followed my heart
and then...
he followed me
No, i'll probably never marry him
But i'm happy
I'm happy
That's what matters
