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 id 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. 
 
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,  
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, and 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 ill 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.
