And it was '93 back in mid July
When we both tumbled to the ground
Just a boy and a girl growing up in a southern townStanding in your arms out on the doorstep
We were just kids but I could never forget
The sound of your voice and the fire in your eye
When we crossed our hearts and we hoped to dieYou were just a kid and I was only seventeen
But we swore, we'd always be together
Don't let go of the adolescent nightLying on our backs, we were young and so naive
We swore, we'd stay that way forever
Don't let go of the adolescent night
We were killing time as the years went by
Two lovers with a restless heart
We both took those vows
That they were never gonna tear us apartMoved into a house down on the corner
All grown up though we never wanted to
But we never forgot that night
When we crossed our hearts and we hoped to dieYou were just a kid and I was only seventeen
But we swore, we'd always be together
Don't let go of the adolescent nightLying on our backs, we were young and so naive
We swore, we'd stay that way forever
Don't let go of the adolescentStanding in your arms out on the doorstep
We were just kids but I could never forget
And I swear I never will
You were just a kid and I was only seventeen
But we swore, we'd always be together
Don't let go of the adolescent nightLying on our backs, we were young and so naive
We swore, we'd stay that way forever
Don't let go of the adolescent nightThe adolescent night
The adolescent night
The adolescent nightSo hold on
So hold on
So hold on
(Hold on, hold on, hold on)So hold on
(Hold on, hold on, hold on)
So hold on
(Hold on, hold on, hold on)
So hold on
(Hold on, hold on, hold on)The adolescent night
(Hold on, hold on, hold on)
The adolescent night
(Hold on, hold on, hold on)
The adolescent night
(Hold on, hold on, hold on)The adolescent night
(Hold on, hold on, hold on)
The adolescent night
(Hold on, hold on, hold on)
