lyrics

VERSE 1
When I first saw you I thought you were fit so I said,
Hey Baby are you feeling OK?
Then you moved your lips to speak words I did not understand,
I guess it was better of that way,
Hell I never really knew your name,
That number you gave to me never worked all the same,
It wasn't meant to be,
I guess we weren't meant to see each other again,
But I want you to know.

CHORUS
I just want you to know now,
I just want you to see me,
I just want you to know now,
That even though we only met for one week,
Only spoke together one week,
Only hung out for most nights of the week,
It was the week that changed my life,

VERSE 2
When it was over I packed up my things and then I said,
Hey Baby I'll see you someday,
You gave me your number and asked me one day to call you,
Hey Baby I'll call you someday,
Then I started driving away,
You wiped a tear away as your sis turned to you to say,
Wasn't meant to be,
I guess we weren't meant to see each other again,
But I want you to know,

CHORUS
I just want you to know now,
I just want you to see me,
I just want you to know now,
That even though we only met for one week,
Only spoke together one week,
Only hung out for most nights of the week,
It was the week that changed my life,

SAXAPHONE!

VERSE 3
Hell I never really knew your name,
That number you gave to me never worked all the same,
It wasn't meant to be,
I guess we weren't meant to see each other again,
But I want you to know.

CHORUS
I just want you to know now,
I just want you to see me,
I just want you to know now,
That even though we only met for one week,
Only spoke together one week,
Only hung out for most nights of the week,
It was the week that changed my life,
