[Intro]
[Verse]
evan:
he said
there's nothing like your smile, sort of
subtle, and perfect and real
he said,
you never knew how wonderful that
smile could make someone feel
and he knew
whenever you get bored you'd scribble
stars on the cuffs of your jeans
and he noticed
that you still fill out the quizzes that they
put in those teen magazines
but he kept it all
()
inside his head
what he saw, he left unsaid
and though he wanted to,
he couldn't talk to you,
he couldn't find the way,
but he would always say,
[Chorus]
if i could tell her
tell her everything i see
if i could tell her
how she's everything to me,
but we're a million worlds apart
and i don't know how i would even start,
if i could tell her
if i could tell her
[Bridge]
[Verse]
he thought
you looked really pretty- eh erm,
it looked pretty COOL, when you put
indigo streaks in your hair
and he wondered
how you learned to dance like all the
rest of the world isn't there
but he kept it all
()
inside his head
what he saw, he left unsaid
[Chorus]
if i could tell her
tell her everything i see
if i could tell her
how she's everything to me,
but we're a million worlds apart
and i don't know how i would even start,
if i could tell her
if i could tell her
but what do you do, when there's this great divide?
(zoey: he just seems so far away...)
and what do you do, when the distance is too wide?
(zoey: it's like i don't know anything)
and how do you say,
i love you
i love you
i love you
i love you
[Outro]
but we're a million worlds apart
and i don't know how i would even start
if i could tell her
if i could
