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 Secret tango that only I could understand And when she asked me for the time of day I look her in the eyes and quietly say Oh, Gura, Gura Do you have any clue who I am? Listen up 'cause I'll tell you once And I'll explain myself the best that I can Woah, Gura, Gura You don't know me, so I'll have to persist Kinda shy so no wonder why Gura doesn't know I exist Past the class, I followed her Let her tour, leave her undisturbed And if she ever stopped and turned around Get so nervous I stare at the ground Then one day in photography Find a contact print that I cannot believe And there she was staring back at me So I took her up so quietly Ah Gura, Gura Do you have any clue who I am? Listen up 'cause I'll tell you once And I'll explain myself the best that I can Woah, Gura, Gura You don't know me, so I'll have to persist Kinda shy so no wonder why Gura doesn't know I exist 1/17/98 Spend a day that I come to hate As I walked into the video store There she stood as my jaw fell to the floor Tapping your toe, and waiting in line With a movie and Ina by her side Why did bother, why did I care? About this girl named Gawr Gura Gura, Gura You'll never get to know I am This is goodbye, so please don't cry And I'll let you down softly as I can Oh, Gura, Gura Another name to cross off my list In another life it could've been nice but Gura doesn't know what she missed
