When I think about you
my heart races faster
my knees get weak
and my temperature rises
When I think about you
my cheeks flush warm
and inside my head
is a picture of you
When I think about you
I remember your words
and what they said
and I miss you once again
When I think about you
I remember I'm not with you
that I'm too far away
and I can't hold you
When I think about you
I cry.
