Once upon a time
I was sitting there
Quiet as a mouse
Started a conversation
Lost on you
Innocent and timid and
A perfect lullaby
Just two shy kids
Him and I
Just like a storybook
Gleefully I scream
Dreams coming true
Childhood romance, they say
Should've taken a chance?
How we remember
Not at all
As it seemed
Times change
As we grow, we age
Yet something is bliss
In that teenage mist
Of hopes
Of dreams
Of happiness
Of a little while ago, oh oh
With all the things we learned
Lost in a panic
But would I go back for a moment?
Yes.
And I scream
Childhood romance, they say
Should've taken a chance?
How we remember
Not at all
As it seemed
But here's now
The second chance
Not a moment longer
At you, each day
Let myself glance
At that childhood romance
That chance
Never came through
From what I remember
Is not what I remember
Trying to think about what it would be like
If I got you
But alas, back to the present
No more
Reality hits me
Cause I never
Not ever
Got you
