He Doesn't See Me

When he passes me by, he's a ray of light
Like the first drop of sun from the sky
And I know he's a king who deserves a queen
But I am not a queen and he doesn't see me.

When he dances, he moves me to a smile
And I see everything near him shine
There's a grace in his ways that I can't contain
I haven't that grace, oh, I haven't that grace.

And the closer he gets I can't help but hide
So ashamed of my body and voice
There are boundaries we pass inspite of the war
But our own we can't seem to cross.

She has a way that surrounds her so delicate
With a glory that reigns in her life
She is also so much that she is not
These things I can see 'cause he doesn't see me
Ooh, and he doesn't see me.

There are things we can change
If we just choose to fight
But the walls of injustice are high.

When he passes me by, he's a ray of light
Like the first drop of sun from the sky
And I know he's a king who deserves a queen
Someone other than me, so different from me.

Oh, he doesn't see me
Oh, he doesn't see me
He doesn't see me.
