It was eighth grade band
the very first day
I'd been a member for years
and I knew how to play

But I looked across the circle
and time stopped dead
I couldn't catch my breath
and the thoughts left my head

That moment stretched on
for what seemed like a year
I was overwhelmed with bliss
and consumed with fear

I never believed
in love at first sight
but there she was
she shone so bright

But this isnt a fairy tale
with a happy end
we still see eachother
but she calls me a friend

I still lover her
but it matters not
she moved on
my love she forgot

I'll cherish that moment
for the rest of my days
when I saw the only girl
I will love...always.
