i must have seen your face a hundred times i didn't know your name i didn't know your story
with your books open you would study for hours spend
most of your day in the library
you had the look and you had the style just a one of a kind that can't be denied
you walked the walk ya you talked the talk had me tripin
over words that were in my head

And what is ya a boy to do When you feel the ground shaking under your feet
O and what is ya a boy to do when feel the ground shaking under you

i should have asked you your name the first day that i saw your face
and i should have asked you the time just to get some kind of a connection
o i should have tripped my self in front of you so i could get your help
i should have asked you your name the first day that i saw your face

we didn't know what to expect when we started just two young kids they liked to smile for each other
from our first week on we spent every day o that girl she had a grip on me
we walked around that whole damn town not a thing to do we were kicking rocks
so meet me at the house on cheyenne street we're going get down we're guna shake it loose

And what is ya a boy to do When you feel the ground shaking under your feet
O and what is ya a boy to do when feel the ground shaking under you

i should have asked you your name the first day that i saw your face
and i should have asked you the time just to get some kind of a connection
o i should have tripped my self in front of you so i could get your help
i should have asked you your name the first day that i saw your face
