From somewhere inside my head
Well bravely I fought off the
Pillars of post-war books 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
Implying that she's the bees knees

And I didn't feel half as horrible
She gave me a heart attack
We both put our sunblock on
Laid on the beach and vowed that
Yeah, but she got a tan and
Unaware of where we'd been

We both put our sunblock on
Laid on the beach and vowed that

Oh afterglow, look out below!
We'd left a trail of dust behind
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
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
Laid on the beach and vowed that
But she got a tan and I got a sunburn
