Pretty brown eyed girl She's so sweet and naive She met a boy fell in love Carved their name out in a tree What a perfect memory There's a swing out by the creek They would meet there He put a rose in her hair Then she kissed him on the cheek Those were the days of innocence When a boy just liked a girl But we didn't know the difference We were livin in our own world All alone and then I close my eyes I think back to that time of my life When everything that meant anything was you Messed things up grew up a little too fast I knew it was much too good to last 'cause the only thing that meant anything was you After church one Sunday morning Near the bottom of the stairs Hair pressed a pretty white dress Playing a game of truth or dare I can still hear my momma saying Child you need to pray I knew it was wrong But it's been so long Since I felt that way Those were the days of innocence When a boy just liked a girl But we didn't know the difference We were livin in our own world All alone and then I close my eyes I think back to that time of my life When everything that meant anything was you Messed things up grew up a little too fast I knew it was much too good to last 'Cause the only thing that meant anything was you Starry skies under the moonlight You and I two fireflies enchanted by the night When I see a rainbow dance across the sky I feel all warm inside I get teary eyed Makes me think about you and I All alone and then I close my eyes I think back to that time of my life When everything that meant anything was you Messed things up grew up a little too fast I knew it was much too good to last 'Cause the only thing that meant anything was you
