Lyrics:

Not long ago in my high school days,

I watched a girl from so far away,

But 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 when she’d ask 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 ya once and I’ll explain myself the best that I can, whoa,

Kristina, Kristina, you don’t know me so ill have to persist, [whistle]

I’m kinda shy so no 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’d ever stopped and turned around,

I’d get so nervous that I’d stare at the ground.

And then one day in photography,

I found a contact print that I could not believe,

and there she was staring 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 ya once and I’ll explain myself the best that I can,

Kristina, Kristina, you don’t know me so I’ll have to persist, [whistle]

I’m kinda shy so no wonder why,

Kristina she don’t know I exist.



1.17.98 has 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, 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.

Another life, it could’ve been nice, but Kristina she won’t know what she missed.
