“varsity blues” (lyrics)

PART 1:

o cristina…
i need you now….
i’m longing for your touch…

o cristina…
you know i need you now…
i don’t mind traveling much…

because the ghosts of the past…
they will be traveling fast…
the ghosts of the past are resting right around the corner…

PART 2:

(i don’t mind traveling with my sweet soul sister) x 4

(mommy’s fallen…daddy’s fallen…)
(baby’s bawling…curtain’s calling)

i was the sole survivor
and yet i still suffer
but know i’m gonna get you in a moment still waiting…

PART 3:

it’s a sixth grade system
and everyone adores you
choose one…choose someone…

it’s your homemade sitcom
and everyone adores you
lord, you shoulda chose one…

then it’s the tenth grade torture
when everyone ignores you
no one to choose from…

it’s time for tenth grade torture
when everyone ignores you
lord you shoulda chose one…

and we can blame it on the weather
it’s why we ain’t together baby

but tomorrow’s spark is showing
and the sun may not be glowing then…
lord we’d better choose one…

PART 4:

i spent my whole life waiting for this
while i was locked in a room
that door was sealed with a kiss

and so it’s no use teaching me now
my head was lost in the clouds
while you were all learning how…

but it was well-worth waiting for this
my heart was locked in a box
my lips were sealed with a kiss

so may we all find something that lasts
cuz the days are so short
and the time moves so fast…

but may we all find something that lasts
cuz the days are so short
and the time moves so fast

while i was landlocked for 24 nights
man, i still wasn’t sure
something didn’t feel right

(and it’s gotta feel right…)

cuz she was barely a baby and back
i don’t give into temptation
but i cover my tracks

so if we all find something that lasts
cuz the days are so short
and the time moves so fast

man, i’ve never been the one to stay late
i take the midnight special
from the terminal gate…

cuz in the dark i won’t be denied
we may get lost on the way…
but it’s a beautiful ride…

*SCRAPS*
