I just know your name
But still just the same
I see you in my dreams at night
I see you in my food when i eat
I see your pretty mug i think that
I'm in love
If you kissed me i would blow up
If you kissed me
You would throw up
I try to say don't walk away
From me in this condition
I sit and look at you and think
Of what you do after school
When you go home and leave
Me standing all alone here
And i try to speak
My mouth's dry
I'm weak
I'm sure you've got a boyfriend and
He's probably a lawyer or something
I try to say don't walk away
From me in this condition cause
I wanna be with you tonight
I can't move to the other side of
The room and you're ignoring me
You must think i'm gay or
Something because i can't find
A way to ask you out but i'm trying
I'm trying i'm trying i'm trying
