It was '93 back in mid-july when we both tumbled to the ground Just a boy and a girl growing up in a southern town Standing in your arms out on the doorstep We were just kids but i could never forget The sound of your voice and the fire in your eye When we crossed our heartsn and we hoped to die
You were just a kid And i was only seventeen But we swore we'd always be together Don't let go of the adolescent night Lying on our backs We were young and so na?ve We swore we'd stay that way forever Don't let go of the adolescent night
We were killing time as the years went by Two lovers with a restless heart We both took those vows That they were never gonna tear us apart Moved into a house down on the corner All grown up though we never wanted to But we never forgot that night When our hearts and we hoped to die
