Alexa

I have always been rather partial To a skinny brunette That’s always been my ideal It stems from when I was a lad of 14 And the time I saw Alexa I fell in love with instantly She was two years younger than me And when I first set eyes on her I thought I had died and gone to heaven She was so perfectly beautiful Of course she didn’t even know I existed So I would watch her from a distance A vision of loveliness Playing with her friends I never had the courage to speak to her But I would practice What I would say If I ever got the courage But of course I never did So I would say them in my head And make believe I said the words to her I would dream of a time When I would ask her out And we would walk away together Holding hands as we walked down the street, But it was only a dream I wish I could go back to that time... When I saw her standing there. Knowing what I know now And speak to her of my love For Alexa, the skinny brunette If only I could live my youth again
