Sunburn


Lyrics

So there we were back home from somwhere inside my head. Oh,bravely, I fought off the monsters beneath her bed. Pillars of postwar books supported my frame of mind. While she memorized the pages that I tried to not hide behind. She took my hand in hers, and whispered her love for me. The lantern died that night, but we didnt need to see. Implying that she's the bees knees, and I am the cats meow. It's funny how she recalls what I can't remember, now.

CHORUS

But when her smile came back, and I didn't feel half as horrible. She gave me a heart attack. Just because she looked so adorable. We both put our sunblock on. Played on the beach, and vowed that we'd live and we'd learn. Yeah, but she got a tan and I got a sunburn. I got a sunburn.

Verse 2

So there we were out there, unaware of where we'd been. We kicked off our flip-flops, and swung from the rooftops again. It's awkward, but I'll confess she's all I can think about. And it's funny how I recall what she cant she can't remember, now.

CHORUS

But when her smile came back, and I didn't feel half as horrible. She gave me a heart attack. Just because she looked so adorable. We both put our sunblock on. Played on the beach, and vowed that we'd live and we'd learn. Yeah, but she got a tan and I got a sunburn.

Verse 3

Oh, afterglow, look out below. We left a trail of dust behind. As we parted ways, she held my gaze, and left an imprint on my mind. I tried not to cry as we said goodbye, and hung the clouds above my town. But I shed a tear when she disappeared. Cause now I'm a stranger on the ground.

CHORUS

But when her smile came back, and I didn't feel half as horrible. She gave me a heart attack. We both put our sunblock on. Played on the beach, and vowed that we'd live and we'd learn. But she got a tan and I got a sunburn. She got a tan and I got a sunburn. Yeah, but she got a tan and I got a sunburn.
