"I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it."
- Audrey Hepburn.


VERSE 1
I loved a boy who loved a girl.
She's on the other side of the world.
Alone in the driveway, we would dance.
I always knew I never stood a chance.

VERSE 2
They'd been broken up for years,
but he couldn't always hide the tears.
He had my heart, but it wasn't enough,
because with her, he was still in love.

----
After she visited, he was finally free.
He found his closure, but he didn't find me.

CHORUS
He found you. He found you.
He found your sarcastic remarks,
he found your wild embarks.
He found your love for "That 70s Show."
He found your need for a good cup of joe.

He found the way you do not curse,
he found the way you hold your purse.
He found your confidence, no doubt;
he found the way you call him out.
He found a girl whose feelings are true.
He found me inside of you.

VERSE 3
He had kissed a lot of girls,
but none of them he felt for.
I thought I would be different,
because we were already good friends.

VERSE 4
Now we're just friends, he'll never know
how I felt ten months ago.
He was lost, a broken man
for a girl who didn't understand.

----
After she visited, he was finally free.
He found his closure, but he didn't find me.

CHORUS
He found you. He found you.
He found your sarcastic remarks,
he found your wild embarks.
He found your love for "That 70s Show."
He found your need for a good cup of joe.

He found the way you do not curse,
he found the way you hold your purse.
He found your confidence, no doubt;
he found the way you call him out.
He found a girl whose feelings are true.
He found me inside of you.

BRIDGE
I always dreamed it would be me,
who would finally set him free.
One day he'd realize he loved me more,
that she wasn't worth waiting for.
But I knew he wouldn't move on.
That's where I guess I was wrong.
I gave up hope for a month or two.

That's when he happened to meet you.
I thought you'd be just like me--
another girl who couldn't please.
'Cause I knew he wouldn't move on.
That's where I guess I was wrong.

END CHORUS
Because... he found you. He found you.
He found your sarcastic remarks,
he found your fear of the dark.
He found the way you kiss him goodnight,
the way you scream when you guys fight.

He found the shadows where you hide
everything you feel deep inside.
He found a way into your heart,
just like mine he was a part.
He found a girl whose feelings are true.
... He found me inside of you.

END
I love a boy who loved a girl.
