Old Enough

I'm just a boy in the back of a car.
You're just a girl with nothing on,
And I don't think I'm old enough for this.
I read all the tips on different ways that it's done.
The Real World (MTV) cast thinks it's pretty fun,
But damnation seems like quite an awful risk.
But then the second that you touch my arm my thoughts dissolve.
There ain't no turning back but what's the part worth hanging on.
I wanna wait for something holy, but no fear of God can
hold me like you do.
I doubt you recall, and I bet I read you wrong--
Your joke about the gnomes that you'd spread across our lawn.
Was there something real behind that sheepish grin?
Cuz your friends say it's love, and your mom thinks I'm dumb.
And though in my heart, there's no one else I could want,
Talking marriage might not fit the mood we're in.
But then the second that you touch my arm my thoughts dissolve.
There ain't no turning back but what's the part worth hanging on.
I wanna wait for something holy, but no fear of God can
hold me like you do.
(solo)
But then the second that you touch my arm my thoughts dissolve.
There ain't no turning back but what's the part worth hanging on.
I wanna wait for something holy, but no fear of God can
hold me like you do.
Like you do...

Boy at the Bar

I wish the boy at the bar would go away now
Wish you were standing here with me
It's been a year since my love left me
Little weary can't you see
So I showered three times for this concert
I washed my shirt and all my jeans
Spent a half-an-hour flossing
So if we met you'd think I'm clean
Scripted drafts of conversations
I practiced different ways to lean
How I'd ask you for your number
And how I'd turn away to leave
I wish that boy at the bar would go away now
'Cause you'd be better off with me
It's been a year since my love left me
Wonder when the next might be

$18 Shirt
02:47

If it was only the fall
We could have had it all
Or at least a night
We would have remembered
We danced the night away
Then you asked me to stay
It could have been OK
If it was only September
I bought a shirt for eighteen dollars
Just so you'd say I looked good
I held my fear and I held your hand
Just like your sister said I should
And even though I didn't know
The color of your eyes
Your name still stops my heartbeat every time
You were a stranger to me
An unconfirmed apointee
But how could we delay
And wait for love to happen
And how was I to know
That when you had to go
So did every thing
That I naively imagined.
I bought a shirt for eighteen dollars
Just so you'd say I looked good
I held my fear and I held your hand
Just like your sister said I should
And even though I didn't know
The color of your eyes
Your name still stops my heartbeat every time
I bought a shirt for eighteen dollars
Just so you'd say I looked good
I held my fear and I held your hand
Just like your sister said I should
And even though I didn't know
The color of your eyes
Your name still stops my heartbeat every time

You don't like crazy music.
You don't like rocking bands.
You just wanna go to a movie show,
And sit there holding hands.
You're so square.
Baby I don't care.
You don't like hot rod racing,
Or driving late at night.
You just wanna park where it's nice and dark.
You just wanna hold me tight.
You're so square.
Baby I don't care.
You don't know any dance steps that I do.
Only one can love me like you do. Do. Do. Do.
I don't know why my heart blips.
I only know it does.
I wonder why I love you darling.
I guess it's just because
You're so square.
Baby I don't care.
Baby I don't care.
I don't know why my heart blips.
I only know it does.
I wonder why I love you darling.
Guess it's just because
You're so square.
Baby I don't care.
Baby I don't care.
Baby I don't care. Care. Care. Care.
I don't care.

If You Think

If you think that I won't love you
You're wrong
You're wrong
If you think that I won't follow
You're wrong
And you're wrong
When you say I'll change tomorrow
Undone
When I'm gone
I know if you sink in sorrow
You belong
In my arms
Cuz I'll wear the sleeve you dry with when you cry
I'll find reason in the shadows by your side
And I'll clear your inbox when you're occupied
Let's forget this highway
Let our love decide
When you step away who'll warm
where you fall
when you fall
When you stay awake who'll tell you,
"We can move away now--
We can be"
Oh
Cuz I'll wear the sleeve you dry with when you cry
I'll find reason in the shadows by your side
And I'll clear your inbox when you're occupied
Let's forget this highway
Let our love decide
And we'll feel like The Beatles every day
How I'll get to know you
How my flaws will show through
Never have a thought you couldn't say
Call without a reason
Loving you to pieces
We'll feel like The Beatles every day
How I'll get to know you
How my flaws will show through
Never have a thought you couldn't say
Call without a reason
Loving you to pieces
Let's forget this highway
Let our love decide
