Christina (live) Lyrics - Washed Up And Through The Ringer - Catch 22

Not long ago in my high school days 

I watched a girl from so far away 

And every time she passed me by 

I turned my head away and quietly sighed 

And when she walked by her hair would dance 

A secret tango that only I could understand 

And if she asked me for the time of day 

I'd look her in the eyes and quietly say 

Oh, Kristina, Kristina 

Do you have any clue who I am? Hell no 

So listen up 'cause I'll tell you once 

And I'll explain myself the best that I can 

Woah, Kristina, Kristina 

You don't know me so I'll have to persist 

I'm kind of shy, so don't wonder why 

Kristina, she don't know I exist 

From class to class, I followed her 

But I swore I'd leave her undisturbed 

And if she ever stopped and turned around 

I got so nervous and I stared at the ground 

And then one day in photography 

I found a contact print that I could not believe 

And there she was starin' back at me 

So I took her home so quietly 

Kristina, Kristina 

Do you have any clue who I am? Hell no 

So listen up 'cause I'll tell you once 

And I'll explain myself the best that I can 

Woah, Kristina, Kristina 

You don't know me so I'll have to persist 

I'm kind of shy, so don't wonder why 

Kristina, she don't know I exist 

1-17-98 

It's been a day that I've come to hate 

As I walked into the video store 

There she stood as my jaw fell to the floor 

Tapping her toe and waiting in line 

With a movie and another guy 

Why did I bother? Why did I care 

About this girl named Kristina Behr? 

Kristina, Kristina 

You'll never get to know who I am, your loss 

This is goodbye, so please don't cry 

And I'll let you down as softly as I can 

Kristina, Kristina 

Another name to cross off my list 

In another life, it could have been nice 

But Kristina, she won't know what she missed
