When I first saw you
my eyes widened as they took you in
You tipped your head back and laughed at something your friend said
Your laugh was so intoxicating and made everyone else look up in wonderment
All the pretty girls flocked to your side
Like a moths drawn to light
I wanted to say something cool and funny
So I could make your face light up like a Christmas tree
But every time I even tried to say hi
my stomach would go into knots
my mouth would get dry and
my throat would seizes up
So all that would come out of my mouth
was complete and utter gibberish
And you will never know that whenever you talk
to a girl that my soul dies a little
That my self esteem erodes away, bit by bit
like a wave pulling back the sand into the sea
that's why they call it I crush I suppose
because it crushes me to know that
I will never be good enough for someone
like you
