[bodytext] => The Queen of Our High School
Miriam, I followed you after class
Thru the twists and turns of the high school corridors
Past the guys who worship you,
And I see the way the girls smile and let you pass
Miriam, you're the Queen of our High School
And you carry it all, with the presence of a girl
Ready to take on the whole world
Miriam, you're a super-nova
Miriam, your whole life is a dream
Miriam, I wish I could have just one day,
With you by my side, and with me in your heart
Miriam that would be my dream
To hold your hand and have you close
And we could drive by the football game
And all those players would know
Miriam, you were my girlfriend
They would know
Miriam, you were my girlfriend
Oh it feels so good to say it
Miriam, I love you
More than with just my heart
Miriam, I don't care if you're high-maintenance
Miriam, I don't care if you put on a little weight
Miriam, I don't care if they exile you
I would always stand by you,
No matter what happened
I would always stand by you
You can trust me, I love you so much
Miriam, you're the best thing about high school,
And though my heart is broken,
Because you date Mr. Gorgeous,
You're still the best thing about high school
And I'll tell you a secret about Mr. Gorgeous,
He can't play basketball
And he hates all my friends
Because we play video games he doesn't know how to play
Miriam, I wish I could write songs
Because every song would be on acoustic guitar
And every song would be for you
Miriam, I'll always love you,
And I'll follow you till the day I die
Or at least I'll think of you, so what's the difference?
Miriam, you're the Queen of our High School
And you carry it all, with the presence of a girl
Ready to take on the whole world
Miriam, don't play with Mr. Gorgeous
Miriam, look past my bad skin,
Miriam, come down from being Queen for a day
Miriam, see me and say,
Hey babe
Miriam, see me and say,
Hey babe
Do you wanna go out today?
I want to go to Switzerland with you,
I want to see Tokyo with you
I want to take you to the movies tonight
Miriam, you've got a soft voice and dark eyes
Miriam, I've got a tender heart,
I'm crying as I write this
I'm crying as I write this
Miriam, I followed you after class
Thru the twists and turns of the high school corridors
Past the guys who worship you,
And I see the way the girls smile and let you pass
Miriam, you were the Queen of our High School,
We're all older now
I even know a guy whose hair is grey
He isn't even 20, but there you go
This life takes a lot from a lot of people
And as the days turn into years,
I hope that you go a long, long way
'Cause I'll always be by the sea
And on the internet in the comic message-board
Praying our paths cross and inter-mingle
And you'll see me and say,
Hey babe,
Don't I know you, from school and something?
They were some fun times, I was the Queen of my High School
Miriam, you mightn't recognise me now,
I've got an Elektra T-shirt and Fly sun-glasses,
Miriam, I've changed
Someone even called me cool and loose, the other night in a lonely bar
Miriam, I've changed
But not in the way I feel
Not in the way I feel
And I'll always love you and I'll always stand by you
Let the choirs sing it from the highest mountain-top,
Miriam, I have not forgotten you
So your rule was not in vain,
Your rule was not in vain.
