lyrics

First time that I saw you
My heart skipped a beat
I thought that you were pretty
I thought that you were neat

And I walked outside
And saw the stars
Expecting that they be there
They always are
At night

And I know that it feels good
Just to talk to you
But I...

... saw you walking on your way
You were walking back
I saw that guy walking with you
Looked like he was wearing a mask
Then I turn, and saw the sun there
Shining like it does
During the day

And I know that it feels good
Just to talk to you
But I...

This is the last time that I see you
Is the last time that I see your face
I wave, you think I'm waving 'hi'
But I'll be waving bye
Goodbye

And I know that it felt good
Just to talk to you
But I...
