I was never nothing popular and neither was she She was kind though, always had a smile for me I never thought much about her, didn't see her that way And she was always out sick, missing every other day Now that I think about it we was always saying "Hello" I always figured cuz we both were people alone I hardly knew her at all, she sat behind me in some cla**es What was really going on behind her gla**es? And why was... [Hook] Vera Lee Haunting me, here with me Vera Lee Watching me carefully Vera Lee Haunting me, here with me Vera Lee Watching me carefully Vera Lee Haunting me, here with me Vera Lee Watching me carefully Vera Lee Haunting me, here with me Vera Lee Watching me carefully When I heard she pa**ed away, I must admit I was sad Cuz of all the mean faces, hers was sweet and always glad I hardly knew her for nothing, I only knew she was cool A quiet soul, fragile, slipping through the hallways at school And now that she's gone, I can hear her crying my name Although it doesn't make sense to think about, it's insane But what if I was something special to her cuz I said "Hi" What if she would always dream about if I was her guy And what if those "Hello"s that we shared went a long way What if she felt for me, like, in a strong way What if she was ill but always tried to make it in Just to see me in the halls and share our "Hello"s again Why was...

I hear her in the rain! [Hook] Why!? Is she calling out to me!? To me!? Why!? Is she calling out to me!? To me!? Why!? Is she calling out to me!? To me!? Why!? Is she calling out to me!? To me!? Why!? Tell me, why is she calling down to me!? To me!? Why!? Why!? Why!?
