I was seven and you were nine
I looked at you like the stars that shined
In the sky, the pretty lights

Dawn(7) giggled shoving Paul (9) by mistake

And our daddies used to joke about the two of us,
Growing up and fallin' in love

Reiji laughed and teased them with kissy faces.


And our mamas smiled and rolled their eyes
And said, "Oh, my, my, my"

Take me back to the house in the backyard tree
Said you'd beat me up you were bigger than me
You never did, you never did

Paul teased about beating her up and Dawn ran to hide behind Reiji. But he never did.

Take me back when our world was one block wide
I dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried
Just two kids, you and I
Oh, my, my, my, my

Dawn dared Paul to kiss her then ran again.

Well I was sixteen when suddenly
I wasn't that little girl you used to see
But your eyes still shined, like pretty lights

She looked in his eyes and smiled.

And our daddies used to joke about the two of us,
They never believed we'd really fall in love
And our mamas smiled, and rolled their eyes
And said, "Oh, my, my, my"

Dawn leaned in and kissed Paul remembering Reiji's teasing.

Take me back to the creek beds we turned up
Two A.M. ridin' in your truck
And all I need, is you next to me

Dawn gazed at him and smiled.

Take me back to the time we had our very first fight
Slammin' of doors 'stead of kissin' goodnight
You stayed outside, 'till the morning light
Oh, my, my, my, my

Dawn sneaked out of her room and saw Paul looking at the early morning sky.

A few years had gone and come around
We were sittin' at our favorite spot in town
And you looked at me, got down on one knee

Paul proposed to her and Dawn cried.

Take me back to the time when we walked down the aisle
Our whole town came and our mamas cried
You said I do, and I did too

In the isle Reiji wiped a tear and Dawn smiled at her mama

Take me home where we met so many years before
We'll rock our babies on the very front porch
After all this time, you and I

Dawn shooed her daughter with purple hair to go play with her friends.

And I'll be eighty-seven, you'll be eighty-nine
I'll still look at you like the stars that shine in the sky
Oh, my, my, my (more)

Me: disclaimer heavily implied for both the song and I also don't own pokemon. (Try to imagine just Dawn and Paul in the song and not my words added in between.)
