The Verve Pipe - Freshmen Lyrics

When I was young I knew everything

And she a punk who rarely ever took advice

Now I'm guilt stricken

Sobbing with my head on the floor

Stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice, no



Can't be held responsible

'Cause she was touching her face

I won't be held responsible

She fell in love in the first place



For the life of me I cannot remember

What made us think that we were wise and

We'd never compromise

For the life of me I cannot believe

We'd ever die for these sins

We were merely freshmen



My best friend took a week's

Vacation to forget her

His girl took a week's worth oh

Valium and slept

And now he's guilt stricken sobbing with his

Head on the floor

Think's about her now and how he never really

Wept he says



Can't be held responsible

'Cause she was touching her face

I won't be held responsible

She fell in love in the first place



For the life of me I cannot remember

What made us think that we were wise and

We'd never compromise

For the life of me I cannot believe

We'd ever die for these sins

We were merely freshmen



Hey, yeah

Hey, yeah

Hey, yeah



We tried to wash our hands of all of this

We never talk of our lacking relationships

And how we're guilt stricken sobbing with our

Heads on the floor

We fell through the ice when we tried not to

Slip, we'd say



Can't be held responsible

'Cause she was touching her face

And I won't be held responsible

She fell in love in the first place



For the life of me I cannot remember

What made us think that we were wise and

We'd never compromise

For the life of me I cannot believe

We'd ever die for these sins

We were merely freshmen



For the life of me I cannot remember

What made us think that we were wise and

We'd never compromise

For the life of me I cannot believe

We'd ever die for these sins

We were merely freshmen



We were merely freshmen

We were only freshmen
