lyrics

In your garden
doing work for your dad
I took off my shirt
you just sat there with a drink in your hand
and the sun would glisten on your skin, we were young
young enough to care
and I loved you the best
and for a while you loved no one else

by the pool
you swam to my side
you swam like a child
I couldn’t swim so I just lay there and smiled
and the sun would glisten on your skin, we were young
young and full of youth
in schools and in fields
I remember but my lips are still sealed

by the river
walk hand in hand
leave our friends behind
always looking for a place to lie down
and the sun would glisten on your skin, we were young
too young to know better
I thought I knew you well
you were just waiting on somebody else

somebody else
