"Like Teenage Gravity" lyrics

"Like Teenage Gravity"
(originally by Kasey Anderson & The Honkies)

You're the kind of thing
Those sweetheart boys just talk about
Such a pretty thing
Still burning when the bar lights all go out

Hey, everybody knows your name 'round here
And that's alright
And everybody learned your game around here
And that's alright

And you told me if I stayed 'round here
You'd find a good enough place to hide
But I see you
I see you
So come on out tonight

I had my courage up
Felt younger trying to find the words
You put a record on
Found something you ain't never heard

Honey, everybody knows that song 'round here
And that's alright
Ain't no such thing as waiting too long 'round here
And that's alright

And I told you, if you stayed 'round here
You might wind up by my side
And that's true
That's true
So come on out tonight

All my friends told me
You don't need laws to tell
That if it feels like falling, boy
You probably already fell

The whole table saw your hand
You might as well just play it
You ain't fooling no one
You might as well just say it

I guess I'm in love
I guess I'm in love

Some people get scared of those words 'round here
And that's alright
Some people pretend they ain't heard 'em 'round here
And that's alright

And you said you can't stay 'round here
Well, if you feel like changing your mind
I still see you
I still see you
So come on out tonight
