Unrequited True Love, Part One

Now I don’t know if I really learned about love Or if I got to explore what it’s made of Is it a warm feeling when you hold hands? And kiss and laugh at each other’s stance Are there the troubles that seem to last forever? Because if it works out, you get to live together? Get married and have babies while still in your teens You have the rest of the world to explore your means Is it pain, is it awful? Is it something you want to end? You’d do it yourself but you don’t want to lose another friend? Why does it eat at you inside, why it makes you hate yourself? Why does it make you think there’s something wrong with you? Why would it make you want to kill yourself? Is it that sad, is it really that true? Why do some people say it’s happy times and some say it’s just **** Why do some people think it’s who they are, and some say it doesn't exist? Tell me about betty, what was it about Betty? You said she was smart and slick but really really pretty You never got to know her but you said she was the perfect girl Until you saw her with Army, it changed your view of the world Doing something illegal I think (Wink wink) But if you brought it up, she’d say you weren’t her shrink Was that not love though you said it was alright? You could let her ago until another night When you saw her again with an older guy Well why? She didn’t love him either so why try? So it wasn’t right and you didn’t win, but what about your fling with Jocelyn? She likes track and field and feels the burn And when she got wet you saw through her shirt But that wasn’t sure, ‘cause you didn’t like sports So love was a no go until Cindy Snow Wasn’t as fine, maybe a little portly But sweet as heck and had a nice little Courtney She was interested and you played with it But then she said she was a Santanist You may not have been the holy man But you couldn’t have that hanging over your head You wanted to find someone instead Now when you found it’s over Had to find one more with Lola Was a family friend but still real cool But it was like incest with bended rules And that was not something to do So that couldn’t work but it was okay Because she said she didn’t feel that way anyway
