Nineteen Lyrics - Old 97's

19 is not the age of reason 

I didn't have a reason 

For setting you free 

I've seen 

A lot of love go sour 

But that's not our love 

Y'see the problem was 

I was only 19 

Yeah I was only 19 

I finished up with high school 

Headed to a state school 

Wandered into you 

Big screen 

Kissing in a movie 

God you move me around 

We got seriously down 

But I was only 19 

All I ever wanted to do 

Was lie around in bed with you 

I was only 19 

I was only 19 

I've seen 

A lot of love go bad now 

But that's not how our affair 

Would have wound up I swear 

But I was only 19 

All I ever wanted to do 

Is lie around in bed with you 

I was only 19 

I was only 19
