[Verse 1]
Staring all alone and your grace and style
Cut me to the bone with your razor blade smile
I watched you playing pool
It's all around the school that I love you
I love your gypsy hair and dark brown eyes
Always unprepared for your pointed replies
Cynical and lean
I lie awake and dream about you
[Chorus]
If you only knew what I'm going through
Time and again I get ashamed to say your name
It's hard to grin and bear when you're standing there
My lips are dry, I catch your eye and look away
[Verse 2]
Sitting in my room, I've got it bad
Crying for the moon, they think I'm mad
They say it isn't real but I know what I feel and I love you
[Chorus]
If you only knew what I'm going through
Time and again I get ashamed to say your name
It's hard to grin and bear when you're standing there
My lips are dry, I catch your eye and look away
[Outro]
Sitting in my room, I've got it bad
Crying for the moon, they think I'm mad
But I would give my life for a single night beside you
