Analysis of High School Love



When I'm ready
You going steady
When I'm steady
You're ready

You always knew what to say
Every time  you passed my way

You always knew how to make me smile
Knew exactly which buttons to dial

When we meet regardless of the years passed by
We just click, we're never shy

When I'm ready
You going steady
When I'm steady
You're ready

Days come and days go
Everytime I see you the reality still shows
In the past we met
Things were said
Till today there is still no regret

When I'm ready
You going steady
When I'm steady
You're ready

Truth be told: There will always be that someone in your past when you see them after a few years , the smile on your face just lasts.
