Story behind the song
The memory of an incredibly beautiful girl I noticed on the bus to school. My car broke down and I was forced to ride... glad it happened; got to look at her and got a song out of it. She never knew I existed.
Lyrics
Suzy Thompson
I. One day back in High School
Had a car that bit the dust.
And like a snooty upper-classman
Held my nose and tooth bus.
II. And on that humble transportation
Sat a perfect visualization
Of such beauty had to
Re-consider bin' snooty.
Suddenly got woozy
When I laid my eyes on Suzy
Chorus: Deep brown eyes so big and round,
Chestnut hair a handgun' down
To her shoulders. Shoulda told her,
"Suzy Thompson, Suzy I'm the guy who
Always worshipped from afar.
Can't help wond'rin' where you are
Now we're older. Shoulda told her,
"Suzy Thompson I still carry the torch for you."
III. It surely was a spell that I was under
As I'd gaze at her; a wonder in those sweaters
Ev'ry morning' on the bus
And I regret I never let her know that
No one filled a sweater better
Chorus:
