Wasting My Life

By: JamiEand The Hippos (sorta)



Something in the way she never looks my way I'm in love
Something in the way she doesn't hear a word I say I'm in love


"M-Mimi?...uhhh, Mimi?", Joe asked, sweating, his voice shaking.
The tall longhaired girl didn't flinch.
"Mimi? Mimi!", he still called, although she was a mere two feet away.

But people say we're not the same
She's out of my league I'm insane


A gaggle of girls just like her walked by, and she smiled at them, exchanging "Hey girl, what's up?"'s between them.
Joe still stood behind her, waving his hands, trying to get someone's attention.
"Hey, Mimi, what's with the dork behind you?", a girl with teased blonde hair whispered to her.

Am I wasting my life waiting for you, is it true?
Am I wasting my life on you?
So tell me it's not true

"Who?", Mimi asked, not even bothering to look around.
"Nevermind", she said in some valley-girl accent.
Joe sighed, will she ever notice him? Will he ever get a chance to profess his love?
Probably not, although he rehearsed it in his head a thousand times.

Something in the way she looked at me today I'm in love
Something in the way she says for me to get away I'm in love

If only he had the chance, he'de tell her about his secret collection of her hair strands that fall on the floor during chemistry class, or the pictures he draws of her on the back of his history homework, or even the way he hangs out at her bedroom window some nights.
He'de tell her, even if Tai says she'd put a restraining order on him.

But people say we're not the same
She's out of my league I'm insane

Joe sighed again, louder than before, and thought maybe he should just forget about it all, find some other girl who was within reach.
He smacked his head, oh that's right...he didn't want another girl.

Am I wasting my life waiting for you, is it true?
Am I wasting my life on you?
So tell me it's not true

He turned around, figuring he had better get back to class.
He may love Mimi, but his mistress was math class.
He thought he heard his name being called, but since the only other people in the hallway were Mimi and he friends, he thought he was just hearing things.
"Joe!", wait, he was right! A girl was calling him!
He whirled around, trying to look as nonchalantly sexy as possible, when he was met face to face with Mimi.
"Joe, your such a dork", she said flatly, then walked off.
Joe's eyes widened. She had....talked to him! He didn't care what she had said, because she had talked to him! He skipped math class that day, and spent the period thinking of how sweet her voice had sounded, and how much better it would have been if his lips accidentally fell on hers. Oh well, he thought.
