Too Damn Young


He picked me up at the corner of my block,
I was a nerous wreck, didn't want my
grandparents to catch on.
I glanced at my watch, it was half past nine,
And here I was waiting for those headlights to shine.
There little girl was going for a late night ride,
with a rugged, blue eyed country boy at her side.
We drove out to the middle of the farm fields,
all you could hear were the crickets singing there,
and the feeling of the cool, spring air.
THe hood of his Jeep was warm on our backs,
we didn't know what we were doing,
we didn't have a care.
I layed there with his chest for a pillow,
but little did I know...
Soon we'd be together forever.
I was too damn young to know any better.
He leaned in to me,
and brushed away my hair.
My eyes met him in a loving stare.
He kissed me like he meant forever.
And I was too damn young to know any better.
Before we knew it dawn broke behind the trees,
time had escaped our minds, we were free.
WE rushed back home before our parrents,
knew we we'd been gone.
I never thought I'd see the day,
but that spring night I gave my heart away.
The beholder of my heart,
is that blue eyed country boy,
who'd been there from the start.
And to this day he still kisses me,
like he means forever.
I'm still too damn young to know any better.
