Teenage Love Song Lyrics

We were teenagers the first time we met
You were so famous, I couldn't resist
I was your girl then, that's what you said
When you kissed me, kissed me, kissed me

I gave you sweet love, boy, you said it was nice
It was my first time; we did it just twice
Went out for some sodas, when will you return?
But you dissed me, dissed me, dissed me

I went away for reasons disclosed
You broke my heart, man, oh, you didn't know
But now I'm back to see you again
Did you miss me, miss me, miss me?

We were teenagers the first time we met
You were so famous, I couldn't resist
I was your girl then, that's what you said
When you kissed me, kissed me, kissed me

Oh, Davey, why did you leave me
All alone when we went all the way?
But maybe someday, Davey
We'll be together for more than a day

I still love you, and always will
All those motel rooms, you fronted the bill
I am not bitter, I want you to know
Got yours coming, I've seen it before

So now we're standing so damn close
You've been in rehab - you think I don't know
I just remind you of yesterday
Places forgotten, and friends passed away

But if you want me, please won't you say?
So I can diss you, diss you, diss you
Diss you, diss you, and walk away

I think it's just as likely that this is song is a fiction. If it's not a fiction, it's likely that "Davey" is a pseudonym. If it's not a pseudonym, then it could be any young actor also named David. It's certainly not uncommon for young women to have relationships that they regret, i.e. becoming too attached to someone who turns out to be a cad to the nth degree. This song depicts one of those such instances.

Seriously though, whoever it is, why would they ditch Jenny Lewis!? She is cute beyond all belief. And has an amazing voice to boot.

Dude steph is right! They were teenagers when they did "Teenage Set" together

Also, isn't that tool known for being in and out of rehab? She was right when she said "got yours coming, i've seen it before"

Seriously though, Jenny Lewis and David Faustino? It's the indie version of Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri!

Uh, it means that Jenny Lewis lost her cherry to David Faustino of Married, With Children and wrote this in revenge...

This is the most country Rilo Kiley song I've ever heard. I love it, though.

Please someone tell me that steph isn't right?!? That guy is a total cheeseball loser - I can't believe Jenny would ever fall for him, even when she was young. I read somewhere this was about Dave Foley, but he's so much older than her that they weren't teenagers at the same time. I'll be so depressed if this about that married with children hack though!!
