Not long ago in my high school days
|
I watched a girl from so far 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 if she asked me for the time of day
|
I'd look her in the eyes and quietly say
|
|
Oooo...Kristina, Kristina
|
do you have any clue who I am?
|
(hell no)
|
so listen up 'cos I'll tell you once
|
and I'll explain myself the best that I can
|
Oooo...Kristina, Kristina
|
you don't know me so I'll have to persist
|
I'm kind of shy so don't 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 ever stopped and turned around
|
I got so nervous and I stared 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
|
|
Kristina, Kristina
|
do you have any clue who I am?
|
(hell no)
|
so listen up 'cos I'll tell you once
|
and I'll explain myself the best that I can
|
Oooo...Kristina, Kristina
|
you don't know me so I'll have to persist
|
I'm kind of shy so don't wonder why
|
Kristina she don't know I exist

1.17.98
|
it's 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 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
|
in another life it could have been nice
|
but Kristina she won't know what she missed
|
