Did you give my message to Kiss-Shot?
I hear your laughter beyond the door
You were supposed to be with me forever
I breathed onto the classroom window and wrote your name
only to panic and wipe it with my sleeve
I heard your voice from the hallway
and went home in hurry to hide my feelings

to talk to you normally
I can hear your laughter beyond the door
You were supposed to be next to me forever
You knew how I felt
even when I said nothing
Now I know how important you were to me,
but we will never see each other again
