*Now you’ve got me watching your eyes, got me waiting just to see, if it goes the way it never will, your eyes are watching me, and now you’ve got me thinking ‘bout the first time that I met you, standing in a crowded room but I could only see you, and I hope my words will get through, ‘cause now I can’t forget you, I want to tell you, if only I could reach you, and make you feel this way* -Joel(from the song change)

*I am lost throughout all of this confusion, I hope I somehow get to you, I practiced all the things I’t in the see-thru, I think you lost yourself too.
