Those gifts both get and all
ย
Christine, I wish I could've met you when we were seventeen
We'd have done all those silly teenage things
I'd ask you to the prom
We could go to a bonfire at the beach
Or wear long johns in our sleep
As we cuddled close on a winter night
Oh Christine, well I still want to do all those things
Except maybe the prom thing 'cause, well
I can't get tickets to something like that
But maybe instead we could go to dinner at
That Mexican restaurant you said we'd go to
Then afterwards we could go somewhere
Secluded and play tape in the deck
And then we could dance just like Corey
Haim in "Underground Unlicensed to Drive"
You know, there's only one thing that I might change about that
Even though I'm Italian, you know, it's kind of a sin I guess
Instead of Frank Sinatra, I'd rather listen to Bruce Springsteen
Christine, I wish I could've met you when we were seventeen
We'd have done all those silly teenage things
I'd ask you to the prom
We could go to a bonfire at the beach
Or wear long johns in our sleep
As we cuddled close on a winter night
Now that last part, yeah, that's where it gets kind of difficult
'Cause, not getting a long john, you
Could get those at any department store
But I know you told me that you've got insomnia
So that makes sleeping the hard part
As for the cold, you could sleep in
Front of the refrigerator or a big fan
Those both get pretty cold, but if I knew
You at all right now, I'd do that as well
Goddamn, don't you call me Christine, so I'll say
Oh, Chris, I'm so glad that I met you before you were
One and six
Super rad, you like "Columbia Darkness" and you love MST
We'll throw the joints at the screen in your house
And I'll be your MST-3000
