Lyrics

Face In The Crowd
VERSE 1:
I told you off a thousand times
when you just didn?t know
I told you to get out,
not bother me no more
Sure don?t make no sense,
for a year you?ve been gone

About a million angry words
I never got to say
While you forgot so easily
I?ll never be the same
Sure don?t make no sense,
why I still feel this way
CHORUS:
Would I yell, or would I cry
Would you want a second try
Would I slap you ?cross the face
like I?ve been wishin? I could do
What would I do
If that face in the crowd
really turned out to be you
BRIDGE:
Man, would I love to blow your mind
with beauty and wits, just one time
You?d fall to my feet,
like you?ve seen me do
And admit that the world has
never seen a fool like you
CHORUS
TAG:
If that face in the crowd,
really turned out
to be you
you, oo-ooh,
To be you
