Well I've known this girl forever

From the playground to the dance hall

From the same old dirty housing

All her friends I will call my friends

All the time we call our own

Well we used to stand together

Now I stand alone



This is it, how was I the last to know

This is it, how was I the last to know

This is it, it's touch and go



Well I should've seen it coming

Well I should've read the signs

She was gone in the morning

Left me with red eyes at night

Well she couldn't even tell me

Didn't tell me

Cause my courage must've failed her

Turning out the light



chorus



What if I should find you

Drag you to your room

That's the trouble you've been go too soon

Well I hope you make it big time

Well I hope you got it right

That you say you got no heart to put up a fight

Maybe I'm new to this small town

But I still got more than you

Why don't you just try and call me

When you're passing through



chorus



What if I should find you

Take you to a movie

That's the trouble you been go too soon
