Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, Elizabeth and Elizabeth
These city legs cannot take the hard gravel of your driveway
You and your advanced books
You and your polka-dotted look
We rang bells made out of clay
And yelled for somebody to save us
[Verse 2]
Well now, all these years all I can say
Is I wish I had been more brave for you
Don't worry, pretty soon we'll see the big hot air balloon
And we'll let them land right here
[Verse 3]
And we'll meet here every year by the river
We'll meet here every year by the river
We'll meet here every year by the river
We'll meet here every year, oh
[Verse 4]
Did I mention I am terribly afraid of all the crawfish?
Let's build a fort instead
I swear to keep it safe till the day that I am dead
We could paint college dorms forever
Or I could famous and then
Our moms would never have to ever work again
Remember when we were camping?
Your dad knew all about the bears
Said you could scare them with your yelling
Now I raise my voice when I tell him I don't hear him
But he still stood right there
[Verse 5]
And so my question is
How in the whole world to you get rid
Of someone who seems to care, care, care, care?
And now I care
And now I care
Now I care
Oh, I don't know
Guess I'll give in
[Verse 6]
Oh, Elizabeth and Elizabeth
Let your phone ring
For I have ruined everything
