Our fading photograph, Hand in hand, baby faces. We were too young To know what that meant. Or was he? That, and the "I love you". I was too young To think to say "not yet."
It might have been alright If not for the sneers And the names that followed. I never told my family, But he's been to court for it, now. I didn't know then, But I think I was the first. Back then, I thought it only counted If you were fighting.
Maybe it our naive mistake. Maybe he was too young to know That I was too tired to fight.
His shining eyes and his baby face Gaze wearily, not forcefully Back at me. They can call me what they please. I thought I was in love. Then again, I was too young.
