I was feeling suicidal
Listening to Billy Idol
Dissolving in an army of tears
So damn sure
I'd remember that year
But it was given to you
Baby, it was given to you
It was given to you by mistake
We're all crushed by what we make
And what we take
You were lively as a wire
Like a song by Billy Squier
And everybody wanted your touch
So damn sure
That I loved you so much
But she's a trainwreck
She's a shadow on my lawn
It was given to you
Baby it was given to you
By mistake
I was wasted on an island
Lost in an asylum
Anxiously awaiting the fall
So damn sure
I knew nothing at all
You stayed high for most the summer
At one party or another
I never got to hold you again
So damn sure
That year'd never end
But she's a trainwreck
She's a shadow on my lawn
It was given to you
Baby it was given to you
By mistake
