lyrics

I poured my love into the wrong glass
Pour the contents out
Your ice melted way too fast
I'm just a watered-down version of what it means to be a virgin

Maybe you were meant for bigger things
Than falling for a small town girl like me
So go get lost in the city and walk the streets
Find somebody who loves you as much as me

Well just try to let me be
I'm only nineteen

I fell at your feet
I'm only nineteen

Soon the feeling surpasses the memory
Your body shook my mind into believing
That we were meant for something and you were meant to love me
I'd rather stay behind than live a life without you ahead of me

Oh just try to let me be
I'm only nineteen

I don't know everything
I'm only nineteen

I poured my love into the wrong glass
Pour the contents out
Your ice melted way too fast
I'm just a watered-down version of what it means to be a virgin
