Wild Eyes

saw the lights from the police car
splash across the front yard
dance across your t-shirt
while we ran out the back door
i don't think my heart ever beat so hard before
i've never seen wild eyes like yours

heard all the rumors about you
how you dropped out of high school
with your beat up black converse
and your broken front tooth
let 'em talk all they want
i don't care anymore
'cause i've never seen wild eyes like yours

wouldn't say i was your best friend
i was just someone who would listen
but it was you and me all summer long
down in your parents' basement
that was years ago
we're not those kids anymore
it's just that i've never seen wild eyes like yours
