It was '93 back in mid-july when we both tumbled to the ground 

Just a boy and a girl growing up in a southern town

Standing in your arms out on the doorstep 

We were just kids but I could never forget

The sound of your voice and the fire in your eye 

When we crossed our heartsn and we hoped to die



You were just a kid 

And I was only seventeen

But we swore we'd always be together

Don't let go of the adolescent night

Lying on our backs

We were young and so na飗e

We swore we'd stay that way forever

Don't let go of the adolescent night



We were killing time as the years went by

Two lovers with a restless heart

We both took those vows

That they were never gonna tear us apart

Moved into a house down on the corner

All grown up though we never wanted to

But we never forgot that night 

When our hearts and we hoped to die



Ã¥Å'’nd I swear I never will

Ã¥Å'Ÿold on
