A song really built around a beat that I was having fun with. For a change, there's no acoustic guitar strumming chords. The flute is the main feature and the words came last. A little different for me.

It's about a crush I had on Terry Woods in kindergarten. She went to a different school after that and we rarely saw each other again. I still have a thing for women with long brown hair and big brown eyes.

Once, in a land that's known as childhood
There was a girl that I once knew
She had a smile could light the firewood
AAnd oh, what her words could do
Thought that a face could feign indifference
Thought I was little Superman
Two X-ray eyes to bridge the difference
Frightened to hold her hand
Sat in a tree and dreamed about her
Wished she could see what I could see
Carving her name, my thoughts grew louder
Drowning reality
Nobody knows the crush I carried
I was a shy and silent boy
Letting it grow so made me worry
Wanting to be her toy
Now that I've lived a life without her
She's just a color in my head
Not much that I recaall about her
What kind of life has she led?
Destiny spins a wheel of crushes
Force makes you fly against the wall
Leaving no room for second chances
Then you begin to fall
Lately when I put down my reading
Lay back my heaad and close my eyes
I hear a name that bears repeating
Only to fantasize
Crush
Crush
