I've been thinking about the word crush And how you were my first And how better days became worse. I sat behind you in English, Every two p.m Tuesday was a picnic And I dreaded when the class was finish. I remember ignoring the world From all the words the teachers hurled I heard none of it, Made fun of it, to make you laugh.
The only time I ever saw your face Was on my way to my desk, But when it came to your fashion sense, Or your favourite taste I'd already known them all Before I even knew you.
You did not look back all year, Till the end of the year When you and I were face to face To tell me 'I've been shy, I wonder if you'd like lunch', Trying to mask my joy, I giggled 'Yes I'd like that very much, place and time?'
You never appeared, And that was the end of the year, So now I know the meaning of the word crush, I know of how you left my heart to crush, I could c-the rush before everything fell apart. You were just a crush.
