It's Still About A Boy & Girl
©2007 David Harper

Saturday morning about 3 AM 
There’s that pebble at his window again
Looks like she’s really goin’ through with it
Her momma’s gonna cry

He didn’t pack, didn't think she'd leave
Fact is, the girl's got a need
Nobody else in this little town… 
Will ever understand

There go the might-have-been’s
And shoulda-done’s
She's 18 he's 21
They'll say its too fast, won't last,  
The boy is simply outclassed
This is the real deal now 
You’re walkin’ on coals
The feel is new but the story is old
Here, there, everywhere, 
In every town around the world
It’s still about a boy and a girl 
 
Monday evening 9PM
Long past where state line ends
A picture window’s all lit up
She’s paintin’ from a cup

She says this will be the nursery
A little color's all it needs
Bobby we can make this old place new
I was thinkin’ about blue

CHORUS

Bobby ... Don't you think about leavin'
This here is the good stuff
Makes a young man tough
