Walking down the hallway
saw you standing in the crowd
but you were something different
not to mention you were loud
i caught your eye, you caught mine
and then we started to talk
i told you all my classes
and then with me, you started to walk
we got to know each other
help each other when times were hard
i let my shield down a little bit
took down my wall, my only guard
it wasn't too much longer
until the night of October nine,
you asked me to be your girlfriend
and i took your hand in mine
we wanted different things
i wanted you to change your ways
you wanted to stay the same
and we broke up in later days
I'm not quite sure what happened
and then you left school for awhile
but one random night you called me
we talked, we laughed, we smiled
i told you i had a new girl
and i think that broke your heart
i hope you know it hurt me too
it tore me right apart
then you went away again
and came back just once more
i hugged you as big a hug i could
and almost brought you to the floor
we've been talking ever since
and i still remember that October night
and i know that we both hurt inside
and our feelings we try to fight
it's hard to see you in the hallways
it's hard to say "lets just be friends"
but that is all that we can do
and hope that our hearts mend
