This song is auto-biographical, about my first (and only) love at highschool. I was too shy to ever ask her out. There are still days when I think about her, though.
Another break in the school yard, and your radiant smile
is my only sight for me in a mile.
I wish I could walk up to you, and meet your glance,
but it has only been eight months since we met; we are not even friends.
Every thought of you dries my tongue.
It does not matter - I would not know what to say.
When you look my way I just stumble along.
How can a girl make me feel so afraid?
[And I love you - only from afar.
Always peachy-red cheeked as it seems,
My image of you shines as bright as a star
You are my perfect maiden, and the topic of every dream.
You are the center of every one of my dreams.]
You brought your guitar to one English class,
You are so beautiful in more than one way.
Over your sweet melodies I nearly lose my breath,
so I just move my lips, as my voice will not serve me today.
Maybe one day I will pick up a guitar of my own,
maybe I will write a song about you
maybe you will hear it, maybe you won't
and maybe, just maybe, I will tell someone how I feel about you.
[And I love you - only from afar.
Always peachy-red cheeked as it seems,
My image of you shines as bright as a star
You are my perfect maiden, and the topic of every dream.
You are the center of my universe.]
[Chorus]
