Lyrics

Deanna looks the same way
As the day when we first met
Hanging out in the corner
Of Springfield and sit
Talk about love and loss
And Noel had nothing to say
We stole the car from the neighbors
Crashed it the very next day

My brother's on the porch swing
When the cops came looking for me
He knew that I was guilty
But he never did say a thing
Missed out on confession
Was not afraid to leave
I ran away from my house
I was only 16

That's the way that it was those days

Met some friends up at Clay Hill
We stayed there till dawn
I knew my parents would miss me
They would never let on
Sent me away to Florence
It's where the bad kids go
Looking back I realize
I should have known

That's the way that it was those days
