Chorus

Varonica draws me in the margins of her notes

Varonica laughs at all my stupid little jokes

I asked the chorus teacher could we switch the rows

Nobody has to know

Nobody has to know

Verse 1

She wears paint on her fingers and a quiet kind of smile

Everybody walks right past her

I stop and stay a while

I'm the loud one with the temper and the drama in my wake

But she says my name so gentle

That the whole hallway goes blank

Pre-Chorus

So I moved my chair beside her

Told the teacher it was for the sound

Truth is I just wanted closer

Wanted her around

Chorus

Varonica draws me in the margins of her notes

Varonica laughs at all my stupid little jokes

I asked the chorus teacher could we switch the rows

Nobody has to know

Nobody has to know

Verse 2

She thinks I don't notice when she looks at me and blushes

Tucks her hair behind her ear

I notice every single time

I got a reputation and a short fuse I don't hide

But for her I go quiet

For her I go soft inside

Pre-Chorus

I could fight the whole school over nothing

But I'd never raise my voice at her

She's the only one who calms me

The only one who works

Chorus

Varonica draws me in the margins of her notes

Varonica laughs at all my stupid little jokes

I asked the chorus teacher could we switch the rows

Nobody has to know

Nobody has to know

Post-Chorus

La-la-la, la-la-la

La-la-la, la-la-la

Bridge

Maybe after last period

Maybe by the lockers

I'll tell her that the seat was never really about the chorus

Maybe she already knows

Maybe she already knows

Chorus

Varonica draws me in the margins of her notes

Varonica laughs at all my stupid little jokes

I asked the chorus teacher could we switch the rows

Now everybody knows

Now everybody knows

Post-Chorus

La-la-la, la-la-la

La-la-la, la-la-la
