I met you by the lockers you were wearing that smile
Thought we'd last forever, I'm in love for a while
But school bells ring and hearts collide
Love in the hallways, just a bumpy ride
We wrote each other letters, passed them under our desks
Teachers knew the drama, but they'd never confess
Your friend said we'd make it go the extra mile
But now we're battling tests, and it's so juvenile
Oh baby, can't you see
School love ain't meant to be
We're stuck in textbooks, heart breaks too
High school love it recks you
We had our lunchtime dates behind the football stand
Swore we'd be the couple with the upper hand
But seasons change and lockers do too
Found myself alone when the bell rang for you
Saw you at the prom with someone new on your arm
No way to escape from the hurt in the alarm
We played our parts in a teenage show
High school hearts, they break just so everyone knows
Oh baby, can't you see
School love ain't meant to be
We're stuck in textbooks, heart breaks too
High school lover likes you
High school is supposed to be fun
But somehow you make it to torture
Oh baby, can't you see
School love ain't meant to be
We're stuck in textbooks, heart breaks too
We had our lunchtime dates behind the football stand
Swore we'd be the couple with the upper hand
But seasons change and lockers do too
Found myself alone when the bell rang for you
Saw you at the prom with someone new on your arm
No way to escape from the hurt in the alarm
We played our parts in a teenage show
High school hearts, they break just so everyone knows
Oh baby, can't you see
School love ain't meant to be
We're stuck in textbooks, heart breaks too
High school lover likes you
School love ain't meant to be
We're stuck in textbooks, heart breaks too
