Christmas Twin Falls, Idaho is her oldest memory
She was only two
It was the first time she felt blue
Cafeteria Harrison Elementary
Beneath a parachute I saw her without shoes
7UP I touched her thumb and she knew it was me
Although she couldn't see
Unless of course she peeked
My mom's good she got me out of Twin Falls, Idaho
Before I got too old
You know how that goes
That's where she still was the summer she turned 17
In 1983
Two weeks after me
Last I heard was she had twins
Or maybe it was three
Although I've never seen
But that don't bother me
She was only two
It was the first time she felt blue
Cafeteria Harrison Elementary
Beneath a parachute I saw her without shoes
7UP I touched her thumb and she knew it was me
Although she couldn't see
Unless of course she peeked
My mom's good she got me out of Twin Falls, Idaho
Before I got too old
You know how that goes
That's where she still was the summer she turned 17
In 1983
Two weeks after me
Last I heard was she had twins
Or maybe it was three
Although I've never seen
But that don't bother me

This song is about this guy who escaped from a small town and remembers, regretfully, a gradeschool crush who didn't make it out...as a small town girl, I've ween SO MANY of my friends from kindergarden get pregnant, drop out of school, get arrested...those kinds of things. It's really sad to think how different our lives are, when we started out on the same page.
