We used
to make such a great team
But I was looking for love
and we were eighteen
I didn't know what I wanted,
but I wanted you
We spent that summer in daydreams
I know that some days they wer
en't what they seemed
But I still believed in the things
that we did in your room
When you're young, it's so easy
'Til reality calls
It's a new kind of letdown
It's the rise and the fall
You used to make such a big deal
Said I was taking my chances
on the unreal
But I had nothing to say,
and I had nothing to lose
We spent that night on your back porch
Kickin' the dirt at our feet,
we said our last words
I didn't know what you wanted,
but I wanted you
When you're young, it's so easy
'Til reality calls
It's a new kind of letdown
It's the rise and the fall
Every love is the first time
'Til the crack in the wall
It's a new kind of letdown
It's the rise and the fall
We used to make such a great team
But I was looking for love
and we were eighteen
You didn't know what you wanted,
and I wanted you
When you're young, it's so easy
'Til reality calls
It's a new kind of letdown
It's the rise and the fall
When you're young, it's so easy
'Til the crack in the wall
It's a new kind of letdown
It's the rise and
the fall
