I rode my bike passed your house at least a thousand times
No matter what I do I just can't get you off my mind
All the guys in the neighborhood they wanna know your name
Well, it's too bad that they can't talk to you 'cause
they're too lame

I wish you and me
Baby, I could walk you home from school
Or hang out, baby, that'll be cool
I wish you and me
I was hopin' maybe I can hold your hand
I just wanna be your man, baby, oh, ho
