086 Songtext / Lyric

I remember meeting you after class;

it was a winter of windshield frost and teenage lust,

And whenever I'd speak to you, you would not lift your eyes.

Oh, the years went by and you got wise.



Summertime was the time for breaking up,

grannies to come home, daddies to get fired.

New things would happen to you, but you would not lift your eyes.

Oh, as years went by you got wise.

Oh, the years went by and you got wise.






You were two years and a half younger than me,

the youngest of two sisters you will always be

And whenever I took you home,

I had to keep out of your parents sight

Oh, as years went by I learnt to hide.

Yes, as years went by I learnt to hide.



You teenage lovers, who think you're something special,

and get together one Friday morning, and come back home three full days later.

Your family won't support you, so you ignore them altogether,

and you won't listen to anybody, because you think yours is forever.

You do well.
