Lyric

I can still see you leaning on your locker

Half-smile like you knew you had me

Cherry lip gloss and shaky hands

Trying to look tough in my favorite jeans

My friends were loud, the hallway was louder

But everything got quiet when you looked my way

Like the whole school disappeared

And it was just your name in my brain

Lockers and lip gloss, sophomore year

A little brave, a little scared, crystal clear

You said “meet me after last bell,” I almost died

Lockers and lip gloss, we learned to hide

A love that felt too big for those teenage walls

You wrote your number on my notebook cover

Like it was nothing, like it didn’t shake me

And when your shoulder brushed my shoulder

I felt my whole future try to wake me

We didn’t say much, but it meant everything

Little moments making big promises

And I kept replaying every second

Like I could make it last with a wish

Lockers and lip gloss, sophomore year

A little brave, a little scared, crystal clear

You said “meet me after last bell,” I almost died

Lockers and lip gloss, we learned to hide

A love that felt too big for those teenage walls

We didn’t know how to say “forever”

So we said “see you tomorrow” instead

And somehow that was everything

The sweetest thing I ever read

Lockers and lip gloss, it still hits

Like a song I can’t skip when the memory sits

In the back of my mind where my first love stays

Lockers and lip gloss… those were the days

Those were the days

Cherry on my lips

Your name on my wrist
