Across the Way
He looked at me
From across the way
I smiled because
I couldn't help it
I was in love with him and
Nothing he said was a lie
I used to think
That love didn't exist
But then I found out
Love is a beautiful thing
If you truly find it
He told me
He loved me and
For all these years
I was with him
(Now read this from the bottom to the top.)
