I saw you in the choir third row to
the right
Singing off key but you still caught my
eye
New your mom from her mom
Your dad from the school
All my friends knew I liked him they
said whatever thats cool
So I watched you at lunch like I was a
spy
Taking mental notes like you were just a
guy
Then that girl swore she didn’t care
Then she liked you too man it just wasn’
t fair
They all told me just text him just say
how you feel
I knew how I liked you and it was way
too real
You said I’m not dating right now like
that changed how I feel
I lied about a fire extinguisher just to
say hi Pretended I was lost, just need
ed a sign
Now we’re texting… kinda… if you ever
reply
Yeah, you’re in band, I’m in memories
And my friends still root for you and me
But maybe it’s time to let this go
before highschool sends a set of new
notes notes oh a set of new notes notes
oh
I checked my phone like it owed me a
call
You’re just… busy, right? That’s
probably all
I Still laugh at the time I tripped in
the hall
You helped me up—I nearly lost it all
Your trumpet case hit my knee
Guess that’s love, at thirteen.
I rehearsed
what to say like a Broadway scene
But that last day of school just wasnt
as clean
You said, “Just friends,” and I said
“cool”
But dam I felt like such a fool
Yeah, I lied ‘bout the fire extinguisher
s just to say hi
Pretended I was chill, but inside I
could cry
Now we’re texting… barely… it’s a one
-way try
You’re in band, I’m still wishing in my
dreams
And my friends still ship us like it’s a
team
But maybe it’s time to let this go
Before high school sends a set of new
notes notes oh a set of new notes notes
oh
So here’s to fire extinguishers and
innocent lies
To silly crushes and teary goodbyes
You were my song, even if it’s the end
You never were my boyfriend, but I hoped
we were friends
Now I am blind to what boys can be and i
dont even hate you for not loving me an
d
I’m writing songs, getting you out of my
head
It’s time to let this story go
High school’s calling—to send new notes
notes oh a set of new notes notes oh
-a set of new notes.
-a set of new notes.
