Lyrics

[00:42.458] All the time, awake
[00:44.598] You're still on my mind
[00:47.189] But we were on our own
[00:49.698] Almost all the time
[00:50.918]
[00:51.298] And she'll step away
[00:53.458] For a second or two
[00:55.748] And I close my eyes
[00:57.948] And I think of you
[01:00.448] We were only seventeen
[01:00.589]
[01:03.389] We were holding in our screams
[01:04.998] Like we'd torn it from the pages
[01:07.118] Of some lipstick magazine
[01:09.688] And you scratch and turn
[01:12.980] And say, "let's burn ourselves up 'til we scream"
[01:16.959] Like gasoline
[01:18.488]
[01:42.519] Those tender days
[01:44.558] At your mother's house
[01:47.308] And your father would find
[01:48.727] My hand inside your blouse
[01:51.138]
[01:51.338] But they tell me that
[01:53.378] You're married now
[01:55.918] Oh my dear, I fear
[01:57.698] I can't understand how
[01:59.918]
[02:00.378] We were only seventeen
[02:02.748] We were holding back our screams
[02:04.899] Like we'd torn our lives from the pages
[02:07.238] Of some girly magazines
[02:09.639] And you scratch and turn
[02:11.320] And say, "let's burn these sheets down to the seams"
[02:16.800] Like gasoline
[02:18.600]
[02:41.700] I was only twenty one
[02:44.0] I wasn't having any fun
[02:46.260] And the words you said
[02:48.900] Tore through my head
[02:50.900] Like bullets from a gun
[02:53.180] And I shoulda just shown up and said,
[02:58.490] "Get in this car, let's run"
[02:59.990]
[03:00.220] And these years have seen
[03:00.950] So many imitations turning green
[03:02.930] Each like the last, they go right past,
[03:05.380] Like credits on a screen
[03:07.350] But your memory blazes through me
[03:09.920] Burning everything
[03:14.560] Like gasoline
[03:16.780] Like gasoline
[03:19.100] Like gasoline
