about

At this point, I found it hard to write songs in my usual autobiographical style because I didn't want to tip my hand to my girlfriend that our relationship was a sham and I didn't love her. I figured this thinly-veiled metaphor for how adult relationships are as fleeting as puppy love— wrapped up in an appropriately John Hughes movie-style pop song—would slip past undetected. She only said it was pathetic I was recording teeny-bopper music. She wasn't stupid or blind to what was going on and I wasn't as clever as I thought.

lyrics

It only lasts as long
As a teenage love song

One night
One dance
One kiss
One chance

It only feels like this
When it’s your very first kiss

One night
One dance
First time
Last chance

And the
starlight spins around you
all night it surrounds you
starlight spins around you
all night it surrounds you

Like a teenage love song...

True love fades as fast
As a slow dance lasts

One night
One dance
One kiss
One chance

And the
starlight spins around you
all night it surrounds you
starlight spins around you
all night it surrounds you

Like a teenage love song...

One night, one chance

Like a teenage love song...

And the
starlight spins around you
all night it surrounds you
starlight spins around you
all night it surrounds you

Like a teenage love...
