I was watching a movie, the other night on TV
The actress reminded me of you
Her attitude, the way that she smiled

She was doin' a part girl, like you used to do
I do believe you played it better
If it wasn't better, it was just as strong

I would've called you up on the telephone that night
But somehow girl, it'd been all wrong
I heard you married a stranger

In a horse and carriage that was covered with gold
Well, you wanted to be different and still fit in
I wonder if you feel different at all now that you're older

Hope you didn't lose that innocent laughter
Oh, God I hope time didn't take that away
All those junior high nights underneath the front porch light

A good Catholic girl during the day
Oh oh oh, just watching the time grow
Old enough to know that these memories can't hurt a thing

Oh oh oh, just watching the time grow
If I saw you today, girl, I wouldn't even know ya
Well, I know it wasn't that big of a love affair

But boy, it sure seemed like one back then
When I parlay the memories into their proper places
I can see now, we were no more than friends

Ooh, your kisses sure tasted sweet
But I guess any kiss tastes sweet at fifteen
I just hope your touch is as warm to your ol' man

As it seemed like it was to me
Oh oh oh, just watching the time grow
Old enough to know that these memories can't hurt a thing

Oh oh oh, just watching the time grow
If I saw you today, girl, if I could be with you today
I wouldn't even know ya
