I looked around
All bags on the ground
Every seat was taken
Just gotta keep standin'

I only wanted to rest
Find a place that's best
When She walked in
My world began to spin

She's the girl from before
Her shift was always at 4
She had me when my coffee
Got dropped on the floor

One way or another
I should tell her
How I feel for her
But I have fears to conquer

God knows I like her
But I'm just a bar tender
Who looks regular and plain
I know I'm going insane

Now it's gonna take guts
To finally connect the dots
I hope she won't deny me
Her "Yes" would make me happy

Because one way or another
I should tell her
How I feel for her
Must find the right words to utter

God knows I've fallen for her
My love for her is stronger
My looks shouldn't matter
I can be a great lover!

I've waited longer than this layover
I'm hoping not to stutter
Please look behind your shoulder
Following you feels like forever

Will you remember my face?
I visited your shop for days
I blushed every time you gaze
Will I be welcome at your place?

I wonder where you're headed
Can I be on your flight instead?
This layover is my chance
I can forget about France

Coz one way or another
I should tell her
How I feel for her
So I won't be sorry after

God knows I've fallen for her
This layover just made me stronger
She turned around and looked at me
Her face just joyful as it can be

She smiled and said "Hi!"
For once, I'm the luckiest guy
She knew who I was
I'm no longer a ghost at last!

This layover was blessed by God
I am the happiest lad!
I'm flying with her to Soledad
Thanks be to God!
