Streetlight Manifesto - Kristina She Don't Know I Exist lyrics
[Streetlight Manifesto - Kristina She Don't Know I Exist lyrics]
Not long ago in my high school days
I watched a girl from far so away
But every time she passed me by
I turned my head away and quietly sighed
And when she walked by her hair would dance
A secret tango that only I could understand
And when she’d ask me for the time of day
I’d look her in the eyes and quietly say
Oh Kristina, Kristina
Do you have any clue who I am? (HELL NO)
So listen up cause I’ll tell ya once and
I’ll explain myself the best that I can
Whoa kristina, Kristina you don’t know me
So ill have to persist (whistle)
I’m kinda shy so no wonder why
Kristina she don’t know I exist
From class to class, I followed her
But, I swore I'd leave her undisturbed
And if she’d ever stopped and turned around
I’d get so nervous that I’d
Stare at the ground
And then one day in photography
I found a contact print that
I could not believe
And there she was staring back at me
So I took her home so quietly
Oh Kristina, Kristina
Do you have any clue who I am? (HELL NO)
So listen up cause I’ll tell ya once
And I’ll explain myself the best that I can
I’m kinda shy so no wonder why
Kristina she don’t know I exist
11798 has been a day that I’ve come to hate
As I walked into the video store
There she stood as my jaw fell to the floor
Tapping her toe, and waiting in line
With a movie and another guy
Why did I bother, Why did I care
About this girl named Kristina Behr?
Kristina, Kristina
You’ll never get to know who I am
(YOUR LOSS) this is goodbye so please
Don’t cry and I'll let you down
As softly as I can kristina, Kristina
Another name to cross off my list
Another life, it could’ve been nice
But Kristina she won’t know what she missed
I watched a girl from far so away
But every time she passed me by
I turned my head away and quietly sighed
And when she walked by her hair would dance
A secret tango that only I could understand
And when she’d ask me for the time of day
I’d look her in the eyes and quietly say
Oh Kristina, Kristina
Do you have any clue who I am? (HELL NO)
So listen up cause I’ll tell ya once and
I’ll explain myself the best that I can
Whoa kristina, Kristina you don’t know me
So ill have to persist (whistle)
I’m kinda shy so no wonder why
Kristina she don’t know I exist
From class to class, I followed her
But, I swore I'd leave her undisturbed
And if she’d ever stopped and turned around
I’d get so nervous that I’d
Stare at the ground
And then one day in photography
I found a contact print that
I could not believe
And there she was staring back at me
So I took her home so quietly
Oh Kristina, Kristina

So listen up cause I’ll tell ya once
And I’ll explain myself the best that I can
