about

written by Joe Kerwin

this song is about being afraid of sex.

lyrics

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...
