He watches her from behind
As she walks across the floor
Doesnt move, no
But his eyes caress her shoulders
While the coffee he bought gets cold
He watches her from behind
So she knows and she wont turn
But her hands shake
Its a shame she wont see the smile he wears
Cause its only for her he smiles
I guess I knew from the start
He wouldnt play the main part
I guess I knew all along
He would appear in this song
Pretending this is a film
Now a close-up on her neck
And some soft lights
But the film will no reveal her voice
Cause this script doesnt have any lines
I guess I knew from the start
He wouldnt play the main part
I guess I knew all along
He would appear in this song
He watches her from behind
While her girlfriend gives advice
Doesnt listen
But her minds obsessed with one desire
How she wants him to see her face
He watches her from behind
And thats all therell ever be
And dont blame her
Another life or some other cafe
And they just might have found a way
I guess I knew from the start
He wouldnt play the main part
I guess I knew all along
He would appear in this song
