By the gate

School bells blaring
Everybody's wearing
Their summertime clothes
Summertime clothes

And my momma said to wait
For them by the fence or gate
But I must've gotten there too soon
Gotten there too soon

Too soon
Too soon

Too soon
Too soon

I always thought that you'd grow old too
But things get messy
Now you're just a memory

And some things will always fade
But my love will remain stained
Will remain stained

And I'm still waiting

I'm still waiting

And the sea is on fire
And her heart was the lighter

And the sea is on fire
Quit painting it blue
And her heart was the lighter
And I nicked the fuse

And the sea is on fire

And the sea is on fire
