The Runaway Wild - Forever Eighteen (Lyrics)

Описание: Visit https://www.youtube.com/@therunawaywi...

Oh, pretty one, your time has come
Yeah, and you just don’t know it
I’ve chosen you ‘cause I love the view
Yeah, and I just must show it

I saw you at the town fair
Dancing in the crisp autumn air
You were swaying your hips and flipping your hair
And I couldn’t help but stop and stare, listen:

You sure look beautiful tonight
But we both know those looks will fade
‘Cause time is like cruelty in disguise
So, let’s make sure you never change
And you’ll be…

Forever eighteen, beauty queen
You’ll always be a pretty little thing
There’ll be bloodied sheets and torn up jeans
But for now, just come dance with me
And your bed where you slept
Will be a temple to the dead, but you’ll be
Forever eighteen

Shh, quiet now, settle down
It’s time I pull the knives out
The more you squirm, the more it hurts
So, try not to twist and turn! Listen:

If we end it now, then time will stop
‘Cause beauty never beats the clock
Your luscious lips and hourglass hips
They will remember it!
And you’ll be…

Forever eighteen, beauty queen
She was always such a pretty little thing
Now there’s bloodied sheets and torn up jeans
Crumpled up on the floor in a heap
Your photographs, a flag half-mast
Will be remembrance to your past, but you’ll be
Forever eighteen

‘Cause time never stops
It goes on and on
But they’ll remember you
Cause you’re young, pretty and gone

There’ll be a search by the cops
’Til the night becomes the dawn
And the town will cherish you
She was taken from us far too soon

Forever eighteen, beauty queen
You’ll always be a pretty little thing
There’ll be bloodied sheets and torn up jeans
But for now, just come dance with me
And your bed where you slept
Will be a temple to the dead, but you’ll be
Forever eighteen
