Sweet Little Girl

(SO3)
(M. Artamonov, S. Belongie)
when I was just a little boy
in a little world
with little toys
a family moved to the house next door
with a little girl
in `84
every day we'd meet
at the same bus stop
and I remember when she said
``I know that you're shy but I'd really like you to sit next to me''

probably it had to be this way
eventually her family moved away
what was I supposed to do?
left all alone
waiting for you
and wishing that I could have just one more chance to sit next to you

well the years went by
so fast you know
and he heard her voice
on the radio
he called her up
just to say hello
to see if she had time
after the show
but he heard no reply
as she hung up the phone
I guess there's no time
for him any more
