lyrics

I looked in her eyes that night and I saw
The girl looking back was all I need
I got through the show I had to play
And all through the night I wanted to say
We should leave
You and me
I met you and fell in love
I wanna try to hold her hand if she'll let me
But I think I might be too scared to try
I wanna make it really hard to forget me
Because if I forgot her I would die
So we danced all night
And the time flew by
And she said she'd love me
Until she said goodbye
I could cry
We should try
One more time
I wanna try to hold her hand if she'll let me
But I'd be her best friend if she wants
I wanna make it really hard to forget me
So I can watch her make her tacos for lunch
In the dish that I bought
And gave her for Christmas
After we broke up
The year we practiced Hanukkah
I wanna try to hold her hand if she'll let me
But I think I might be too scared to try
I should try
I wanna make it really heard to forget me
Because if I forgot her I would die
I would die
I would die
Wouldn't I
I met you and fell in love
