Oh how my heart did beat
When I saw him from my seat.
I had to know his name
This was my goal to gain.
I heard his name be spoke
Then I felt like such a bloke.
My words became a mess
Any my nerves became so stressed.
He winked at me and said
I noticed your pretty head
I strained to see your face
From my seat way back in place
He walked me to my next class
I nearly fell upon my ass
He grabbed me by the hand
He helped me gently stand
I looked him in the eyes
There were no questioning whys
Our hearts they did connect
Of him I dreamed when I slept
We dated for the next two years
When we broke-up I shed tears
I will always remember him
And I still smile when I think of then.
