Once Again


 Once Again It's the start of a new school year

Once Again It's time to go back to school

Once Again I'll have to get resettled with my classes

Once Again

 

Once Again I'll have to meet new people

Once Again I'll have to make new friends

Once Again I'll have to relearn things that I already know

Once Again

 

Once Again It's time to go school shopping

Once Again I'll have to find a new bookbag

Once Again  I'll have to learn a locker combination

Once Again 

 

Once Again I get butterflies in my stomach

Once Again my body shakes with nervousness

Once Again I try to stay calm and not panic

Once Again I see a mixture of old and new faces

 

Once Again I'll go back into the crowded classrooms

Once Again I'll have a crush on someone 

Once Again I'll be late for class

Once Again

 

Once Again I'll want to fit in 

Once Again I'll want to be part of the cool kids

Once Again I'll want what someone else has

Once Again I'll have to go  through life

Once Again I'll have to face something new

 

Once Again I'll have to go back to school
