A long time ago, when we were in school
You used to laugh at me, and call me a fool
How I dreamed for the day that you would change your tune,
I never thought that day, would come so soon!
You went from name calling (name calling)
To calling my name
You went from school yard teasing (school yard teasing)
To all night pleasing
You used to be so much trouble (be so much trouble)
Now your love is double
Things will never been the same
Since you went from name calling
To calling my name.
Uh. Alright.
It all started that day, after summer vacation
I knew I had changed your hearts dedication
Oh don't know what I did to change your mind
Must have been something within you all the time
You went from name calling (name calling)
To calling my name
You went from school yard teasing (school yard teasing)
To all night pleasing
You used to be so much trouble (be so much trouble)
Now you're with me on the double
Things will never be the same
Since you went from name calling
To calling my name.
Now, instead of fussing and fighting
We're making sweet romance and a love that'll lighten
Like the old saying goes, and girl you must take heed
I not be what you want, but I'm what you need.
ย
Uh.
ย
Now I've forgotten, those things in the past,
We could be a love affair, and make it last
Oh 'cause sticks and stones might hurt me, but words can do no harm
Now instead of running from you, I'm running to your arms!
You went from name calling (name calling)
To calling my name
You went from school yard teasing (school yard teasing)
To all night pleasing
You used to be so much trouble (be so much trouble)
Now you're with me on the double
Things will never be the same
Never be the same
Never be the same
You went from name calling
To calling my name.
