lyrics

Smell of high-school hallways.
Lake on flush young skin.
Stumbled words and hands at night.
Soft, steady chagrin.

This is, this is your young desire.
Oh, it’s wild and it’s sweet and pathetic.
And somehow you never forget it.

She left with Halley’s Comet.
Was nineteen eighty-six.
And people said, “Now buck up, kid.
You’re too young, you love too quick.”
So I burned Carl Sagan’s Cosmos,
And the lake kind of lost its feel.
Now the day she left doesn’t stand out much.
But is that true?
Am I losing touch?

Oh this is, this is your young desire.
Oh, it’s wild and it’s sweet and pathetic.
And somehow you never forget it.
Oh this is, this is your young desire.
Oh, it’s wild and it’s sweet and pathetic.
And somehow you never forget it.

Walking lone home today,
On a corner swear she’s there.
And stars don’t fall anymore for me.
Or not in a way that compares.
So I step out into traffic.
The doctor’ll ask me why.
And bandaged up, with a blush, I’ll sigh:
“Cause I can’t get out of bed sometimes.”

Oh, this is, this is your young desire.
Oh, it’s wild and it’s sweet and pathetic.
And somehow you never forget it.
Oh, this is, this is your young desire.
Oh, it’s wild and it’s sweet and pathetic.
And somehow you never forget it.
Oh, this is, this is your young desire.
Oh, it’s wild and it’s sweet and pathetic.
And somehow you never forget it.
Oh, this is, this is your young desire.
Oh, it’s wild and it’s sweet and pathetic.
And somehow you never forget it.
