about
A version of this song first appeared on my Jenny Omnichord release "Pregnancy'P"
lyrics
Life in an Archie magazine you come out clean
Gets to pick from two and they both are free
Soon I'll start to show and we all will know
That what has started innocent will grow and grow
I will get my two, but it's different then
Small feet start to tread where before were men
And I will wave goodbye to simple magazines
No one ever got it both ways, no matter what it seems
And I'll get to have your smiles and maybe keep some
Maybe even keep the glances I once ran from
But all the while I'll grow and they'll grow distant
Maybe if I seem intriguing it will be different
Will you be mine at that time?
Will you be mine, the one that never counted
The one I left behind, the amount that never amounted
To what I say I'd do if I hadn't started growing
Will you remain what I don't know and assume is all worth
Knowing
Will you be mine?
Gets to pick from two and they both are free
Soon I'll start to show and we all will know
That what has started innocent will grow and grow
I will get my two, but it's different then
Small feet start to tread where before were men
And I will wave goodbye to simple magazines
No one ever got it both ways, no matter what it seems
And I'll get to have your smiles and maybe keep some
Maybe even keep the glances I once ran from
But all the while I'll grow and they'll grow distant
Maybe if I seem intriguing it will be different
Will you be mine at that time?
Will you be mine, the one that never counted
The one I left behind, the amount that never amounted
To what I say I'd do if I hadn't started growing
Will you remain what I don't know and assume is all worth
Knowing
Will you be mine?
