When I was... (Fifteen) Her lash wide stare (Sixteen) Was leading me home (Fifteen) Her lash wide stare (Sixteen) Was carrying me home
From the bus stops and take-aways From the clubs and the dirt From the girls and the booze From the drizzle and dogs Our lives ran out on us When we were begging for change
Francesca I needed you tonight But Francesca my darling We're not so jolly any more
We're like a boarded up house Kids break into after school The stuff of legends We never talked of getting older When I was (Fifteen) Her lash wide stare (Sixteen) Was leading me home
