High School Lover

Ay, ay, ay, ay

Are you going to the party on Saturday?

She asked us if I didn't know

See, ever since I saw you on the back of some guy's bicycle

Well, I've been feeling kind of so-so

So girl, don't act so surprised

Got that look in your light blue eyes

You can stop pretendin'

Yeah, I been watchin' the movie all along

Wonderin' if there was gonna be an ending

To the story, to the story, to the story

I guess I'll never know

See, I was runnin' as fast as I could

Sayin' the things I thought I should

But it was just a little too slow

Oh Elizabeth, don't keep me guessin'

I opened up the door and saw you undressin'

The words came out, one after another

You should have been my high school lover, oh

You should have been my, oh, oh whoa

You should have been my, oh, oh, oh

You should have been my, oh, oh whoa

You should have been my, oh, oh

Did you get the letters that I sent last summer?

You asked again and again

Well, they been pilin' up on the top shelf in my closet

Yeah, and I read them every now and then

It's got me feelin' kinda stuck like

"What the fuck is goin' on? Someone tell me what is happenin'"

Yeah, you been actin' like you're too cool for far too long

It's okay, it's just kind of embarrassing

See, I been sneakin', I been sneakin', I been sneakin'

Wonderin' just what I'll see

You turn around and stare

You squinted, then you glared

Then I was leanin' back in the passenger seat

Oh Elizabeth, don't keep me guessin'

I opened up the door and saw you undressin'

The words came out, one after another

You should have been my high school lover, oh

You should have been my, oh, oh whoa

You should have been my, oh, oh, oh

You should have been my, oh, oh whoa

You should have been my, oh, oh, oh

High school lover, high school lover

High school lover, high school lover (Hey)

High school lover (Hey), high school lover (Hey)

High school lover (Hey), high school lover

(Yeah exactly, no one's gonna question you)

(Did I touch your butt? That's not me)
