Lyrics
Verse One:
I drove past my old school last night
I got flashbacks to my teenage life
I'd leave class early, and take some time
You'd walk me home by the riverside
Pre-Chorus
Mamma said we were too young to fall
We both knew how that story goes
The heartbreak was worth its weight in gold cos
You're the one I needed most
Chorus:
You were the boy with the green eyes
I was the girl from the East Side
No one else can dance under the moon
With the 16-year-old you
We'd drive to the coast and
Jump in the water with our clothes on
No one else can wake up on the beach
With the 16-year-old me
Verse two:
I moved to college you held on tight
The distance wasn't on our side
I read your letters, they came too late
But time's a healer, it lets us change
Pre-Chorus 2
I guess that we're all grown up now
You built a house down by that beach
I heard you got married in our old town
But there's one place she can never reach
Repeat chorus
Middle 8:
My friends ask me who's that boy?
In those faded photographs
I tell them you helped me find myself
But you're in my past
Repeat chorus
Outro:
I drove past my old school last night
I got flashbacks to my teenage life
