You were being watched as you ate with your girl I can't help it that you are a part of my world Later on, as I was walking home I saw you runnning by We shared a glance and I wanted to cry The phone rang minutes later as I walked in my door It was you on the end of the line and I was completely floored (chorus 1) All I could think of was your face All I could think of was your glance All I could think of was you, you, and you All I could think of was a jaded romance But mostly...your glance. One point five seconds, maybe two Was all I got to see of you And it was then that I knew There was nothing I could do Like a flash it's burned in my mind I can't see anything at all now But a look that said everything The why, the where, when, and how (chorus 2) All I can think of is your face All I can think of is your glance All I can think of is you, you, and you All I can think of is a jaded romance But mostly...your glance. I know you don't love me I think it's a look of understanding fear like you want to be far away but want to be kept near Hell, maybe it was a dream Maybe I woke up thinking it was real Regardless, I remember it And I remember everything that I feel (chorus 2)

"Your Glance"

Written in late August 2001.  This was inspired by a dream I had about Rob Thomas, and a split second glance we shared.  Not so much the glance, but the feeling it gave me.
