Why Did He Say That

Why did he say anything at all? I really wish he hadn’t I spent all year keeping him out And now he has found his way in Yeah, he’s cute, but I don’t want to deal with that So I forced him out of my head But then he said something The Monday after prom As he was unpacking his book bag in History class “I liked the dress you wore.” We barely speak I don’t understand How could I let this happen? Let my mind wander to him Two weeks before school ends Why did he have to say that? I really wish I knew Because maybe if I did I could get over you.
