sixteen

Darling, I'm drowning In that shade of blue Deep in the mountains Every June Think I stopped breathing In those cotton-wood trees You must've known That you terrified me Ooh, ooh I was only sixteen Ooh, ooh I was only sixteen Drinking warm beer At your parents' old house Playing video games On their living room couch And you looked at me Like some kinda James Dean Told me to tell them That I was eighteen Ooh Ooh, ooh All over my skin Like that stupid tattoo That you got on your ribs 'Cause it made you feel cool Had a black motorcycle In your parents garage And you always tasted Like cheap beer or scotch Yeah, I think you knew That you terrified me I was only sixteen Ooh I was only sixteen Drinking warm beer At your parents' old house Playing video games On their living room couch And you looked at me Like some kinda James Dean Told me to tell them That I was eighteen Ooh Ooh, ooh But all we ever did Was things in the dark With your arm around me And the car in park Yeah, we played pretend Like I wasn't too young So I never let "no" Past the tip of my tongue Ooh Drinking warm beer At your parents' old house Playing video games On their living room couch And you looked at me Like some kinda James Dean Told me to tell them That I was eighteen Ooh Ooh, ooh Yeah, I think you knew That you terrified me I was only sixteen I was only sixteen Ooh, ooh I was only sixteen I was only sixteen
