Five, six, seven, eight!
[Verse 1]
All the time away
You're still on my mind
But we were on our own
Almost all the time
And she'll step away
For a second or two
And I close my eyes
And I think of you
[Chorus 1]
We were only seventeen
We were holding in our screams
Like we'd torn it from the pages of some lipstick magazine
And you scratch and turn and say, "Let's burn ourselves up 'til we scream"
Like gasoline
[Verse 2]
Oh those tender days
At your mother's house
And your father would find my hand inside your blouse
Well, they tell me that
You're married now
Oh my dear, I fear I can't understand how
[Verse 1]
All the time away
You're still on my mind
But we were on our own
Almost all the time
And she'll step away
For a second or two
And I close my eyes
And I think of you
[Chorus 1]
We were only seventeen
We were holding in our screams
Like we'd torn it from the pages of some lipstick magazine
And you scratch and turn and say, "Let's burn ourselves up 'til we scream"
Like gasoline
[Verse 2]
Oh those tender days
At your mother's house
And your father would find my hand inside your blouse
Well, they tell me that
You're married now
Oh my dear, I fear I can't understand how
