Lyrics
Glimpse of You by Mark Shapiro 2-10
Intro.
D E D E
Standing on the corner. It's just another day
D
Feeling kind of empty. Got nothing left to say
A7 E
Lost my pride long ago. I have nothing to lose
B7 A E
I'm standing on the corner, just trying to catch a glimpse of you
D E
Remember those days, when we were quite the pair
D E
You were so charming, I was debonair
A E
A story book romance with love so true
B A E
Now I'm standing on the corner hoping to get a glimpse of you
Instrumental to verse chords
A E
Our love blossomed like a rose that blooms
A B
Now I'm standing on a busy street breathing in fumes
D E
Don't know how it happened You took me by surprise
D E
I never got the message when I looked in your eyes
A E
Yes, I was stunned when you bid me adieu
B A E
And now I'm standing on the corner waiting for a glimpse of you
First Verse
Standing on the corner, standing on the corner, standing on the corner ......
