Tales of Love at South High School Lyrics

You met him back in 2007

You guys went on your very first date

The innocence of young sophomore fun

Kissing in the auditorium at lunch was one

You got a car and picked him up and went out on the town

The parking lot at south was where you settled down

You had a pretty crappy time yeah it was bad

Your first time of many and that's how it began

You told him I love you

And he said he loved you back

Both too young to know what love is

Got you off the track

You drove up in your car the first time I met you

I got so goddamn scared I didn't know just what to do

Greeted you behind the cover of a mask

Should've been nicer cause it wouldn't last

You told him I love you

And he said he loved you back

Both too young to know what love is

Got you off the track

But you could've been happy can't you see

You could've been happy just like me

Oh you could've been happy all the way

You could've been happy wouldn't you say

But you could've been happy can't you see

You could've been happy just like me

Oh you could've been happy all the way

You could've been happy wouldn't you say

Went to pick him up from your house with my dad

Something in the air made me feel that he was mad

Did he know something that he wasn't meant to know

Did you let your cover down and let the secrets flow

He didn't love you hell you were only fifteen

You held that over him for most of the eight months

I guess it ended badly if you know what I mean

Cause what you gave each other was never enough

You told him I love you

And he said he loved you back

Both too young to know what love is

Got you off the track

Five whole years had passed he had found another one

I don't why the hell you thought that trying would be fun

Your mother found you dead with a needle in your arm

He never thought the neighbor could cause you that much harm

You told him I love you

And he said he loved you back

Both too young to know what love is

Got you off the track

But you could've been happy can't you see

You could've been happy just like me

Oh you could've been happy all the way

You could've been happy wouldn't you say

But you could've been happy can't you see

You could've been happy just like me

Oh you could've been happy all the way

You could've been happy wouldn't you say

It makes me really damned depressed I don't know why it should

Maybe just remember that at one time it was good

He says that when he listens to it makes him think of you

Now we call you Whatsername the only thing to do

You told him I love you

And he said he loved you back

Both too young to know what love is

Got you off the track

But you could've been happy can't you see

You could've been happy just like me

Oh you could've been happy all the way

You could've been happy wouldn't you say

But you could've been happy can't you see

You could've been happy just like me

Oh you could've been happy all the way

You could've been happy wouldn't you say

But you could've been happy can't you see

You could've been happy just like me

Oh you could've been happy all the way

You could've been happy wouldn't you say

But you could've been happy can't you see

You could've been happy just like me

Oh you could've been happy all the way

You could've been happy wouldn't you say
