You think we would mean something in this space

I’m tired of always running in place

Now I’m falling

Can’t you see me crawling?

You’re there and unaware

Of how much I stare at you

Oh, how I care for you

But this feverish sensation

Makes me stutter and blush

How can’t you see that i have a huge crush?

Some boys make you want to cry

Because of all the gurgling feelings inside

Though instead of dying

I think I’ll just dream of you tonight
