Looking back at those football games
I remember the rush from the crowd
The charge that it drove right through us
****, that's something I haven't felt in years

I ran into an old friend, from our high school days
We started talking about being on top, and having it all
I look back now, wishing I could have some of that now
Because I'm sitting here, wishing I had asked her out

Everyone thought I had it all, but I was missing one thing
I was really wanting to ask her out, but couldn't do it
I just felt out of her league, there was no point in asking
I'm the type with a fragile heart, I'm so afraid of rejection

I was a happy guy back then, don't get me wrong
I had a lot going for me, and our team was strong
The girls I dated, just used me to show off to friends
I felt miserable, all I wanted was a real girlfriend

When I see her now, still looking beautiful as ever
It dawns on me, how my feelings haven't changed
Now that I finally have the courage to finally speak
Is it too late? Do I stand a chance? All I want is her.

A high school crush from 20 years ago
I just wish it hadn't taken so long
Because I feel like I've wasted time
Just hope it was worth it, in the end
