When you make eye contact
For the first time
Heart pounding, palms sweating
Then he turns away
You do too
But you're curious - who is he?
You turn back
He's already looking back at you
Blood rushing up
Your cheeks burning up
For the very first time

Time spent with him
Memorizing
His touch - his voice
In the end you knew
All too well

Every little thing he did
Like a dream
A surprise kiss to the cheek
Waiting for you at your locker
Holding your cold hands
Falling asleep on his shoulder
Picture after picture
Story after story
Rolling through an endless film

Where it went wrong
Did you
Imagine a day without him
The day that he left - left you
A worthless piece of --
Last words spilling
Last tears drying up

Will it ever be the same as before
But just friends
He asked - he tried
Heart pounding, palms shaking
She tried too
But it wasn't worth it
