Songs I Write | IV

16

I saw you in winter at Stratford centre
And you're a hard-hitter ever since I met you
Dating and having fun, kissing, professing love
I never expected it, it's fun and games till someone's

Falling down, knocked six feet underground
Tied by the knot we're bound, and you won't make a sound
But you're still so loud

I'm only sixteen, I don't know a thing
I wouldn't know love if it gave me a ring
Some people are young when they find the one
But I'm looking at you and I find this all dumb
I have two options to choose from
I choose to run

I saw you two weeks ago down by the bridge
You told me you loved me, your aspirations say you never did
Our parents both know the things that we've done
I never expected it, it's fun and games till someone's

Falling down, knocked six feet underground
Tied by the knot we're bound, and you won't make a sound
But you're still so loud

I'm only sixteen, I don't know a thing
I wouldn't know love if it gave me a ring
Some people are young when they find the one
But I'm looking at you and I find this all dumb
I have two options to choose from
I choose to run

I'm still wide awake and it's six in the morning
You're fast asleep, I could hear your yawning
And nothing feels scarier than this dawning
But if I know one thing, darling dear, stopping

Falling down, knocked six feet underground
Tied by the knot we're bound, and you won't make a sound
But you're still so loud

I'm only sixteen, I don't know a thing
I wouldn't know love if it gave me a ring
Some people are young when they find the one
But I'm looking at you and I find this all dumb
I have two options to choose from
I choose to run
You're just seventeen, you don't know what you mean
You wouldn't know love if it pulled your string
Some people are young when they find the one
But I'm looking at you and I'm feeling numb
I have two options to choose from
I choose to run

Falling down, knocked six feet underground
Tied by the knot we're bound, and you won't make a sound
But you're still so loud
