The summer of 7th grade

by Katie   Sep 5, 2004


I called you and asked you the
question that I was so afraid of
I said will you go out with me
And after what seemed like eternity
You replied with “I'm sorry no”

With them three simple words
you crushed my dreams of what
could have been
you felt the need to explain
yourself
and so it went like this

Of coarse you said it wasn't me
You didn't want to date anyone
until we were freshman
You promised we'd date and that
you wanted to…
Just not yet

And as u told me
I was walking around in a circle
at about a hundred miles per hour
Trying to hold back the tears that
were flowing from my eyes

Then I told my friends
They were mad as me
But I told them to believe
And I looked forward to our
freshman year

After a while I didn't believe you
But then later that summer
At you're stepsister's graduation
You promised me that you would
stay true to your word

Then I found out
That you were dating that girl
And only in our 8th grade year
How could you lie to me

You dated her and I cried
Only because you lied
I decided that I
wasn't going to be dating you

Now we're in our freshman year
And again you have a girlfriend
I was hoping by now I would be
over you
I was crazy to believe that

So if you remember back to the
summer of 7th grade
When you promised you would be
my guy
And you said you wanted to
you just needed a little time

And I hope you remember
And I hope you come looking for
me
Well let me tell you I won't be there
I'm done waiting for you

I'm not going to put myself
through that
So I hope you realize that I'm the
one for you
Then realize that you can no
longer have me
All because of the summer of 7th
grade
