Adolescence LyricsYour polyester jacket was
Enough to keep me warm
You lit a filtered cigarette as the
Storm went raging on
Right there and right then
Under the bus shelter we owned
I told you that I loved you
And you told me to go home
After all the time we spent
Was I still just a kid?
For the first time you really looked at me
And you told me
“That’s not it”
And that I have so much life to live
So much love to give
Well, I wanna give it all to you
In the dark and en soleil
Our lives run parallel
Can’t you tell?
Oh, can’t you tell?
After all my tears had disappeared into the rain
You offered me a cigarette
To take away the pain
I started coughing badly and
You couldn’t help but laugh
For a moment I felt like I was your age
Oh, why can’t we forget the math?
‘Cause I have so much life to live
So much love to give
Well, I wanna give it all to you
In the dark and en soleil
Our lives run parallel
Can’t you tell?
Oh, can’t you tell?
You might also likeCan’t you tell?
Oh, can’t you tell?
So much life to live
So much love to give
Well, I wanna give it all to you
In the dark and en soleil
Our lives run parallel
Can’t you tell?
Oh, can’t you tell?
But you just smile and wish me well
