At the start of it all it was simple

It was easy and carefree

Not having to overlook or realize

The trouble it would eventually be

Without warning came something unexpected

An announcement was made for a ball

He had to ask a girl to accompany him

But didn't consider her at all

When the ball was soon approaching fast

He was still alone without a date

So he finally came to that realization

By then it was far too late

It burned her insides up as well

The thought of her not having been thought of more

Meanwhile he was also being torn up within

Beating himself up for not having realized it before

They both had discovered how strong their love was

How every time they saw the other, they'd melt

They both assumed they were alone with their feelings

Never knowing how the other felt
