I saw you in the hallway
I bet that's what they all say
You probably didn't even notice
I was the loser
Who was starin' at my shoes 'n'
Couldn't think of nothin' to say

I'm on the runway
Of a flight that's going one way
On “Cross your finger” airlines
I'm picking up pace
I'm gettin' nervous in the worst way
Here goes nothing

I saw her walkin' over
She's slowly movin' closer
Wrote her a letter about a week ago and, to my surprise
She replied and said

You can hold me once, you can hold me twice
Even better if the stars are good tonight
You can hold me, be my one and only
This is the reply to the letter you wrote me

You told me to meet you after gym class
But I forgot to get a hall pass
And got sent to the office
You tried to call me

Asked everyone around who saw me
They didn't even notice
You're on your way now
Movin' with your parents to some hick town

A thousand miles away
I'm in the playground
And there's so much I could say now
I still remember when

It's been awhile since we said, “Hi”
Three hundred and sixty five days have gone by now
And I could paint of picture of you
I see you every time, I pass your locker
Remember the time we talked 'til 6 A.M
And I'm tired of missing you
Six a.m. and I'm tired of missing
