"American Youth French Kissing" lyrics

"American Youth French Kissing"

Ride on your handlebars
You were saving for a car
It was summer in L.A.
(Hey hey)
I was feeling pretty high
Like confetti in the sky
It was falling into place
(Hey hey)

And no it really didn't matter if anybody was around us
Just American youth French kissing
And no we really didn't care what anybody tried to say about us
Oh no we jumped right in

We'll always be just a couple crazy kids in love
'Cause it feels like yesterday
When you and me were running wild through the setting sun
Before we felt the pain
But now that we're grown
And now that we know
That nothing ever stays the same
But we'll always be just a couple crazy kids in love
Yeah it feels like yesterday

That night at Crystal Cove
Pulled my arms right through the holes
Of my shirt so I'd stay warm
(Yeah yeah)
You drew me into you
You said "Babe if one thing's true
I'll protect you from the storm"
(Yeah yeah)

And no it really didn't matter if anybody was around us
Just American youth French kissing
And no we really didn't care what anybody tried to say about us
Oh no we jumped right in

We'll always be just a couple crazy kids in love
'Cause it feels like yesterday
When you and me were running wild through the setting sun
Before we felt the pain
But now that we're grown
And now that we know
That nothing ever stays the same
But we'll always be just a couple crazy kids in love
Yeah it feels like yesterday

You took my hand and lead me to the sand
Said "Do you remember?"
(Sha-la-la-la-la, ooo-sha-la)
Just you and me yeah touching on the beach
That night in September
(Sha-la-la-la-la, ooo-sha-la)
I know we're crazy kids but I can't wait to grow old together
Then you got on one knee and you said "Babe let's make it forever"
Forever! Oh!

We'll always be just a couple crazy kids in love (couple crazy kids in love)
'Cause it feels like yesterday
When you and me were running wild through the setting sun
Before we felt the pain
But now that we're grown (now that we're grown)
And now that we know (now that we know)
That nothing ever stays the same
But we'll always be just a couple crazy kids in love
Yeah it feels like yesterday
