on an afternoon near the end of June

we first met and fell in love

Being both too shy

neither questioned why.

It was all we could think of.

So awkward at first

it was like a curse.

You'd think you'll never lose.

But then you do and it could happen to you.



in a borrowed ride

white with power glue

we felt the passions burning heat.

With the static glow of the radio,

virgin struggled on the seat.

Bathed in salty sweat we were soaking wet,

as the night turned purple blue.

She took my heart

and it could happen to you.

I was never more alive when in her arms

Life was as complete as it could be.

But being so much younger than

you think you are

Life can be so cruel in it's struggle to be free.

On vacation down from a college town

I heard whispers in the street.

She was seen about always hangin' out

with some dude she called real sweet.

When I asked her why she began to cry

it was all that she could do.

She broke my heart

and it could happen to you

She broke my heart and it could happen to you

...busted



She took my heart and it could happen to you

she took my heart and it could happen to you

she took my heart and it could happen to you

my heart, my heart.
