I was thirty seven
You were seventeen
You were half my age
The youth I'd
never seen
Unlikely people
meeting in a dream
Heaven only knows
the way it
should have been
Here today
my tomorrow
Where you lead
I will follow
All that kissing
No passion missing
Come live with me
Kiss the boys goodbye
Come live with me
Kiss the boys goodbye
Come live with me
Dinner parties followed
And all my age implies
My friends began to talk
I began to realise
If half the things they say
are quarter true of me
Then how can
I eclipse the youth
you gave to set me free?
There was something
in your smile
that was hard
to reconcile
The time had come
to testify to reason
Though years
will not erase
remembrance of
those days
At least there's no
submission to
heart's treason
Here today
my tomorrow
No more shame
only sorrow
All that kissing
There's something
missing
Come live with me
Kiss the boys goodbye
Come live with me
Kiss the boys goodbye
Come live with me
Now there's nothing
left to cry for
And there's nowhere
left to go
Just another
hopeless fight
but how were
we to know
The strong are
sometimes wrong
But the weak
are never free
The choice we made
we can't evade
Don't try to follow me
Here today
my tomorrow
No more pain
only sorrow
All that kissing
There's something
missing
Come live with me
Kiss the boys goodbye
Come live with me
Kiss the boys goodbye
Come live with me
Kiss the boys goodbye
Come live with me
Kiss the boys goodbye
Come live with me
Kiss the boys goodbye
