The old joe never liked me
But I prayed that one day he would change his mind
Until he left and went away
Making me search for something I couldn't find.

I thought I'd never be the same
As months went by and my heart began to heal.
My mind started to clear
As I remembered what it was like to feel.

I tried to say his name out loud
But it was foreign upon my lips
As I uttered the unknown language
I didn't know it but it stung me like a whip.

A miracle happened when I least expected it
A new joe came into my life.
And now he's the one I want,
He even told me I'd make a good wife.

But now my heart is in pain
Because he doesn't know how I feel.
I want him to like me too
If only we could make a deal.

Maybe my heart is playing tricks on me
But I know what I feel.
If he felt the same way too
Then maybe for once my love can be real.
