This song is NOT autobiographical. I was way, way too cool to ever have a girl insist on a secret relationship to maintain her popularity! So there! I remember writing most of this song at an acupuncture appointment. It was weird but I'm very proud of what was made.
lyrics
It was the first of September, or the end of March, oh I don't know but the thing I can't forget was when we kissed under the golden arch
And your armhairs stood up on end but your braids had turned to messy knots and you placed your arms around me and tried to sooth my worried thoughts
And you almost had convinced me that our teenage love was safe and sound, stretched for miles and for years, hovering between two distant towns
but i got out of your car and knew I'd only heard your greatest speech, for the moistness of your eyes placed our hearts just out of reach
oh, we were wrong, all along
the sweetest songs never last long
When you spoke at the assembly, you screamed, "Go Cats!" and i was touched, you were my elder and loved by all but it surprised me just how much I'd fall
I impressed my friend and sent a note past quarterbacks in the midst of fights, asking for the honor of a flashlight picnic friday night
oh, i promised you i wouldn't mind
leaving no trace your friends could find
if i could have known, oh, your favorite sport was casually "slumming it,"
my heart would be my own and I'd call the tune just as soon as humming it
but oh, you we wrong, all along
still whistling my favorite song
oh, the sweetest tune appeared too soon
