When I met you You were just a little boy Doing what little boys do When we talked on the railroad tracks, I knew That there was something, something different about you When we played on the black top in the rain There was something, something different in how you said my name And somehow between Spanish class and P.E. You saw me In ninth grade You asked me to the school dance But I told you No, no, no, no, no 'Cause I'm me and I made other plans Other plans But somehow there through Secret notes and curfews I saw you Yeah, I saw you One sweet night I said I loved you for the first time You wiped away my sincere salty tears And your eyes shined And somehow inside You had lit my dark sky And you were mine
