lyrics

I remember swimming with you
Down in the blue hole
I remember saying to you
That we were getting too old

Like the rainbow trout
We wanted to get out
They sunk their hooks in me
I wanted to be free

I remember walking with you
Down on the red dust road
I remember praying with you
That we weren’t getting too old

I played guitar
And you played the harp
Up in the trees
I wanted to be free

I’ll never be your teenage dream
Although it might have seemed
You liked me more
As a girl of fourteen

I remember sitting with you
Down where the water is cold
Thankful that I found you
Together we will grow old
I will be a crone
Hewn out of stone
Covered in moss
The truth, but at what cost ?

I’ll never be your teenage dream
Although it might have seemed
You liked me more
As a girl of fourteen
