[Verse 1] Morning light spills through the window Hallways buzz with chatter and cheer Clutching my notebook tightly Feeling nervous but so sincere You step in the doorway beside me And my heart skips a beat or two Your smile catches the morning sun And I wonder what’s true Sneakers squeaking on the tiled floor You turn and catch my eye Sketching doodles in my notebook Dreams begin to fly high While the teacher drones on about history I just watch your face and sigh Ohhh I can still feel everything [Chorus] Heartbeat racing faster Dreams in my mind Waiting for the moment To leave fears behind Thought I’d bring a note for you A little note A secret wordBut more than words, I knew That first school day First shy glance [Verse 2] After class By the old playground slide Where laughter echoes through the air I pick a paper flower Hands trembling everywhere You chase me around the yard And I count every beat of my heart Your voice like a melody Bright and clear from the start My words caught in my throat But I knew I wanted to stay Even if I didn’t say it out loud You made my world okay [Pre-Chorus] I whisper“Close your eyesI’ve got a surprise” You grin so wideSay“FriendDon’t miss” The world slows down just for us And that shy first smile [Chorus] Heartbeat racing faster Dreams in my mind Waiting for the moment To leave fears behind Thought I’d bring a note for you A little note A secret word But more than words, I knew That first school dayFirst shy glance [Bridge] I held your hand in the hallway (so small) We started to walk slow Laughed and stumbled Hearts in sync, we’d grow School bells ringing softly Nothing felt more true Spring in the air And that first moment with you It was the wonder years It was the new day sIt was the small of life That first shy glance [Chorus] Heartbeat racing faster Dreams in my mind Waiting for the moment To leave fears behind Thought I’d bring a note for you A little note A secret word But more than words, I knew That first school day First shy glance
