Array ( [sid] => 54338 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The Queen of Our High School [time] => 2004-07-01 03:51:25 [hometext] => This is based on a true story-one for all the High School Queens and their subjects out there! :-) [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.

(David Finn, 2004)

The Queen of Our High School

Its so odd that i love this so much...i mean...its so wierd...its like i wanted to be her, in a way i kinda was.. i wasnt the queen of my school, but i was the queen of my circle, and i wanted to one day see someone who wasnt in my group and see them for who they were and be that fantasy that everyone wants and prove that it can happen.

I really love this

Vanessa ( 090404 )

Its an interestiung and I feel amost universal theme, at least in Western culture, which is the only culture i am qulaified to comment on. Our school days. Unrequited love. Adoration from afar. I like all that kind of stuff, thanks for reading and responding+++++++++vibes++++++++++
