Heather (Conan Grey)
I still remember the third of December, me in your sweater
You said it looked better on me than it did you
Only if you knew how much I liked you
But I watch your eyes as she
Walks by
What a sight for sore eyes
Brighter than the blue sky
She’s got you mesmerized while I die
Why would you ever kiss me?
I’m not even half as pretty
You gave her your sweater, it’s just polyester
But you like her better
Wish I were Heather
Watch as she stands with her, holding your hand
Put your arm ‘round her shoulder, now I’m getting colder
But how could I hate her?
She’s such an angel
But then again, kinda wish she were dead as she
Walks by
What a sight for sore eyes
Brighter than the blue sky
She’s got you mesmerized while I die
Why would you ever kiss me?
I’m not even half as pretty
You gave her your sweater, it’s just polyester
But you like her better
I wish I were Heather
I wish I were Heather(Oh, oh)
Wish I were Heather
Why would you ever kiss me?
I’m not even half as pretty
You gave her your sweater, it’s just polyester
But you like her better
Wish I were…

Personally I always thought Charlie Browns crush on the Red-haired girl, was mainly because he see her as unreachable, so it’s like a celebrity crush, it’s safe for Charlie Brown, because he will never work up the courage to confess, and so he don’t have to deal with rejection.
I think there’s a good chance, that if Peppermint Patty ever managed to make it clear to him she liked him, he would quickly forget the Red-haired girl, the problem is just, that his selfesteem is too low to notice anything short of an outright confession, because he don’t believe a girl liking him is a real possibility.
