Take One Look - Matt Caplan

Had I been wise 
Had it been anyone but me 
I would have laughed 
God, aren't you cute, aren't you right 
Had it been coarse 
Had it been anyone but you 
And that mouth 
God, aren't you sweet, aren't you nice 

And making it matter is harder than making it clear 
And you can't imagine all that I've done just to get myself here 
So you go your way and I guess I'll try to find mine 
Take one look if you please 
'Cause I'm already a threat to your newest disease 
Take one look, take it fast 

Had it been fists 
Had it been anything but words 
I would have laughed 
There, find a nice spot, dig it right in 
Had it been spring 
Had it been anything but fall 
On your knees 
There, show some respect, learn how to hear 

And making it matter is harder than making it clear 
And you can't imagine all that I've done just to get myself here 
So you go your way and I guess I'll try to find mine 
Take one look in my eyes 
'Cause I'm already a smudge in your beautiful sky 
Take one look, take it fast 

How does it feel now that you know? 
How do you see with your eyes closed? 
How do you know? 
How do you know that making it matter 
And you can't imagine 
So you go your way and I guess I'll try to find mine 
Take one look when you go 
'Cause I'm forever in debt to this deafening blow 
Take one look, take it fast 
Take one look, make it last
