Song Lyrics

Every day I see your eyes
And you look at mine, and you don't say hi
You smile at me as you walk away
And I won't see you for another day

I can't get up the nerve to call you
But you're not waiting for me, are you?

Another day, and I try to smile
I have not felt this way in quite a while
We pass again and we both say hi
And it feels so good when you pass me by

I can't get up the nerve to call you
But you're not waiting for me, are you?

I can't get up the nerve to call you
But you're not waiting for me, are you?

This time around I'll flash a smile
You know I'm more than just a child
You tell me that your boyfriend's mad
And so's your mom, and so's your dad

I can't get up the nerve to call you
But you're not waiting for me, are you?

Are you?
