We were young Barely four feet high You were bold and so precocious And I was still so shy Our Moms and Dads were playing Twister You leaned in and then you whispered Let's go to my treehouse There outside In the sky We were alone Far from chaperoned Up a tree we climbed Past our bedtime To pleasures there unknown The crickets sang, the air was misty You leaned in and tried to kiss me And I pulled back, surprised My mind was blown And turned to stone I only knew that I wasn't ready And I didn't go for Ronnie or Betty We were young and all-told We were ten years old And ten feet high You said something 'bout going steady But you had Barbies and bears named Teddy We were only so old We were ten years old And ten feet high Ten years old And ten feet high Years flew by We grew up and said goodbye Different places, lives, and partners But we kept up our ties From time to time I thought and pondered Did I make one tragic blunder Could just one kiss so young have been the Future of you and I But after all I only knew that I wasn't ready And I didn't go for Ronnie or Betty We were young and all-told We were ten years old And ten feet high You said something 'bout going steady But you had Barbies and bears named Teddy We were only so old We were ten years old And ten feet high Ten years old And ten feet high The word came that your Mom was gone So I found my way back home To pay my respects I didn't expect Our eyes to connect In a way that reflected Some night when we were ten How does that happen again An empty house, a bottle of wine You've done well, and you still look fine Let's go to my treehouse there outside One last time I only knew that I wasn't ready And I didn't go for Ronnie or Betty We were young and all-told We were ten years old And ten feet high We got older and complicated Making a simple kiss seem dated But we were never too old To have and hold At ten feet high We finally tried at ten feet high We said goodbye at ten feet high
