I raced you to the train station Standing on the platform Last time I would see you In the same uniform as me With hearts beating faster Saying goodbye from school Knowing we would rarely meet Watching you in the clothes It was just like seeing you For the first time again We are like parallel lines We can't be close I still miss our days together Playing handball in the sun I wish we could freeze time To stay perpendicular Watching you through the train window Its like a pain for both of us Your waving hand is pulling the tears from my eyes As the doors close we turn parallel Then you move away, on those parallel lines I miss when we could be close friends Sharing lunch at school, studying for tests I'm outside your house remembering when the days weren't out numbered Soon the distance will grow But we will stay perpendicular

Parallel lines
I raced you to the train station Standing on the platform Last time I would see you In the same uniform as me With hearts beating faster Saying goodbye from school Knowing we would rarely meet Watching you in the clothes It was just like seeing you For the first time again We are like parallel lines We can't be close I still miss our days together Playing handball in the sun I wish we could freeze time To stay perpendicular Watching you through the train window Its like a pain for both of us Your waving hand is pulling the tears from my eyes As the doors close we turn parallel Then you move away, on those parallel lines I miss when we could be close friends Sharing lunch at school, studying for tests I'm outside your house remembering when the days weren't out numbered Soon the distance will grow But we will stay perpendicular
