Last Chance
I could write you a letter,
But that would be wrong.
I could write down some notes
And play you a song.
I've had crushes before.
They have torn me apart.
I can write much easier
Than speak from the heart.
I always lock up
When I try to confess.
I say something wrong,
And I make a big mess.
But, tonight, I've decided,
I've got to give in.
If I don't do it now,
I won't do it again.
Remember last year,
What Coach Fanning did?
There were points in that class
When he blew off my lid.
Yet, there you were
With that smile on your face.
There was something behind it
I couldn't quite place.
I've told you I like you,
As the long story goes,
But only you and I know
What no one else knows:
I've done all that I can
What else can I do?
I want you to know
I care about you.
This may not be the right line to say
At a moment like this.
I don't want a hug,
And I don't want a kiss.
I've had people do these things
For me for too long.
I'm just tired of waiting;
This whole thing is just wrong.
This may be the last time
I'm down on one knee;
I'm asking you Shanna,
"Will you go out with me?"
