I look for you everywhere. Hallways, Classrooms, Shops downtown, Outside, Anywhere you could be. It's practically instinct now When I'm at school, To look around for you constantly. Wondering if you'll be here, Hoping you're there. Then sometimes, I find you. Out of the corner of my eye I see Blond hair, Standing tall, The proud stride And the little smile that make up you. When I see all of that, My heart skips a beat. I'm grinning and start to head for you, Then I remember. I can't spend every minute with you. You're not my boyfriend. You have a million friends, And I'm just one of them. They don't run up to you Every time they see you, So I shouldn't either. I can't. So instead of going up to you, Even just to say "hey" Because that would brighten my day, Usually, I'll keep walking in my path. Maybe I'll make eye contact with you, And we'll smile. Maybe you won't see me at all. You don't look for me. That's okay, though. I don't expect you to. I'll just keep looking for you, No matter what. And sometimes I'll go talk to you. We'll laugh and joke, We'll hug. I'll see you smile, Maybe even make you smile, And it'll be one of the high points of my day. That makes the times I pretend I don't see you Worth it. That's why I look for you. To bring us both together, And to check on you. I want to make sure that you're safe, And happy, And okay. So I look for you.
