I watch him work beneath the hood of that old truck
He never looks my way,
I guess that's just my luck
I'm just a shadow on his gravel road
A quiet story that is never told
He's chasing dreams that fly too high above this town
And I'm just standing here with my feet on the ground
He'll never fall for a girl like me
An ordinary heart, as plain as can be
He wants the sky,
he wants the open sea And he'll never fall,
no, he'll never fall
For a girl like me (mmm)
I wear my brother's oversized flannel shirt
And hide my hands that are stained with garden dirt
He only sees a friend who's always there
While I'm just wishing he would notice my hair
He'll never fall for a girl like me
An ordinary heart, as plain as can be
He wants the sky,
he wants the open sea
And he'll never fall,
no, he'll never fall
For a girl like me
No, he'll never fall (never fall)
For a girl like me (mmm)
