(Verse 1)
She was just a year ahead of me
But that meant so much back then, you see
When the high school boys caught wind of me
They threw me in the mud
(Verse 2)
And I fought my way to the car that night
And I cursed the water, and I cursed the light
But I learned to swim, and I learned to fight
For the things that mean the most
And oh,
Sweet Samantha dear, I know it s been so many years
And I hope that they have been kind, my friend
9Oh, I think about you now and then
When the sun is sinking low
Over the docks by the shore
Where I laid up in green fields with you
Singing only the songs that we knew
Singing only the songs that we knew
Singing only the songs that we knew
