I met a girl named Tara
And she lived in the heart of America
She liked black caddies, listened to Puff Daddy, Danced until her legs were sore
She worked around the corner,
At a diner with a grouchy owner
And her boyfriend's shady,
dates another girl named Katie
He loves her Definitely Maybe
Don't think I can take it, wake me when it's over
Seems so far away, I wish that it was closer
I see her everyday, I'm too scared to go over
Wonder what she'd say, I barely even know her
How much longer? Will this keep getting stronger?
I wonder what she's doin' when I'm singin' myself to sleep
'Cause He's a faker, so see ya later
I wonder when she'll realize that she means a lot more to me
I saw you in the hallway,
When my last class was just over
It was Friday, school was out
Tonight everything seems to be alright
I said, "Yo, are ya goin' to the party at the cove?"
She said, "He's pickin' me up at six again, and I don't wanna disappoint my boyfriend."
How much longer? Will this keep getting stronger?
I wonder what she's doin' when I'm singin' myself to sleep
'Cause He's a faker, so see ya later
I wonder when she'll realize that she means a lot more to me
As she's starin' at his picture hangin' in her locker
She's tellin' all the girls about all the things that he bought her
I saw what really happened all those times he went for water
When we were at the movie theater watchin' Harry Potter
He had his hands on, every single girl he laid his eyes on
Hate to break it to ya, he's a pylon
And even when he kissed her
He was lookin' over, starin' at her sister
How much longer? Will this keep getting stronger?
I wonder what she's doin' when I'm singin' myself to sleep
'Cause he's a faker, so see ya later
I wonder when she'll realize that she means a lot more to me
I met a girl named Tara
And she lived in the heart of America
