[Verse 1]
If I were a few generations younger
Who would know
What I'd like and what I'd do
My taste in music, taste in clothes
Perhaps I'd meet a girl who likes the things I do
And maybe more
We'd take my thunderbird for a summer trip
Down to the shore
[Pre-Chorus]
Homecoming can
Only come so soon
It's time to go back in time
And come run away with you
[Chorus]
And I hope you are still alive, though it ain't 1955
I would be right there by your side, if I was born in '39
Maybe we could build a boat and sail across the sea
But you're far away from me, not just by length but by an eternity
[Verse 2]
I can see your face, your hair-sprayed hair
And polka-dotted dress
I got suspenders, got my thick-rimmed glasses
And my hair's a mess
But you don't care, we just sip our milkshakes
And theorize 'bout the moon
Listen to Perry Como, I'd get jealous
As you swoon
If I were a few generations younger
Who would know
What I'd like and what I'd do
My taste in music, taste in clothes
Perhaps I'd meet a girl who likes the things I do
And maybe more
We'd take my thunderbird for a summer trip
Down to the shore
[Pre-Chorus]
Homecoming can
Only come so soon
It's time to go back in time
And come run away with you
[Chorus]
And I hope you are still alive, though it ain't 1955
I would be right there by your side, if I was born in '39
Maybe we could build a boat and sail across the sea
But you're far away from me, not just by length but by an eternity
[Verse 2]
I can see your face, your hair-sprayed hair
And polka-dotted dress
I got suspenders, got my thick-rimmed glasses
And my hair's a mess
But you don't care, we just sip our milkshakes
And theorize 'bout the moon
Listen to Perry Como, I'd get jealous
As you swoon
