Back To Junior High
I haven't seen you since Junior High
Since Fiji water and chalkboard goodbyes
I liked you, but some other girl was cool
Then you asked me out on the last day of school
So summer started until August's end
But you were gone and high school began
Sometimes you drove up and waited at the gate
I'm just not the type of fish to dive for the bait
Then, back into my life with the gunning of your engine
Do you want a ride home and where have you been
Like Cinderella, I hop up into the stagecoach
Okay, a black Altima, don't crush my dream- it's not a roach
He gets out for a minute and I should just walk home
But he says hold up... Me? Him? Alone?
So he's back and he's smiling and laughing in my ear
I'm imagining it's because he likes to know that I am near
You drive like a maniac and curse all the way
Apologizing, but it's normal and I hear it every day
You say you want my number, but I don't have a phone
Please tell me you have a girlfriend after all this time alone
Home is too close and so I hug you goodbye
Is it cuz I'm touching you that you say ahh and sigh
You say you'll find me later and though I don't know how
Looks like I'll just have to go and say goodbye for now
