Lyrics
Bukan aku tak tertarik
Dengan kata rayuanmu
Saat matamu melirik
Aku jadi suka padamu
Tiap kali kau bermanja
Gemetar rasa di dada
Ingin kubisikkan cinta
Tapi hati ini malu jadinya
Engkau masih anak sekolah satu SMA
Belum tepat waktu 'tuk begitu begini
Anak sekolah datang kembali
Dua atau tiga tahun lagi
Bukan aku tak tertarik
Dengan kata rayuanmu
Saat matamu melirik
Aku jadi suka padamu
Tiap kali kau bermanja
Gemetar rasa di dada
Ingin kubisikkan cinta
Tapi hati ini malu jadinya
Engkau masih anak sekolah satu SMA
Belum tepat waktu 'tuk begitu begini
Anak sekolah datang kembali
Dua atau tiga tahun lagi
