The third song in aldn’s 2021 album, greenhouse. The song is about a boy and girl that both have crushes on each other but aren’t confident enough to approach one another.
aldn posted a TikTok with the song on January 20, 2021:
[Refrain]
I'll tell a story about two people who'll never meet
They walk the same road, but they'll never walk the same street
It's such a shame because it could've led to something sweet
I'll tell a story about two people who'll never meet
[Chorus]
She's got a crush he doesn't know her, but he's all she wants
But he's been sick, he's not been sober in a couple months
And now she's liking all his tweets, hoping to get his attention
(his attention)
And he gets lonely locked up in his room likе every day
He can't stop hurting, еveryone, he pushed them all away
So now he's craving something new, he's craving human affection
(human affection)
[Bridge]
It's just another broken heart, another love story
I try to write everything down and let it speak for me
I built my guard up, so I can't trust anybody new
I can't trust you
[Refrain]
So, I'll tell a story about two people who'll never meet
They walk the same road, but they'll never walk the same street
It's such a shame because it could've led to something sweet
I'll tell a story about two people who'll never meet
[Verse]
He's got a crush, she barely knows him, but he can't come in
She made her mind up, she don't like him no more, this is it
Well, that's what he thinks every time he checks his messages
(Just a message)
She thinks he would never notice her when she's around
But she don't know when he's outside he's looking at the ground
He might be lost, but at least he hasn't been found
[Chorus]
She's got a crush, he doesn't know her, but he's all she wants
But he's been sick, he's not been sober in a couple months
And now she's liking all his tweets, hoping to get his attention
(his attention)
And he gets lonely locked up in his room like every day
He can't stop hurting, everyone, he pushed them all away
So now he's craving something new, he's craving human affection
(human affection)
