We didn't think it'd last beyond summer,
I met her father, she met my mother,
we didn't have anywhere else to go
She said to me when we grow older,
will we still need young love on our shoulders,
does it just fade away, will we ever know ?
She touched my face and called me her lover,
I never thought that I'd need another.
Your cool suburban sun tan, you're fooling everyone,
you win some, you lose some.
I didn't know what we had found,
just caught the bus and rode it to town,
she wouldn't notice anything else but me.
Your cool suburban sun tan, you're fooling everyone,
you win some, you lose some.
Dancing at discos and moaning at phone bills,
Torremolinos and sunburn in high heels,
Swap it and sell it and drop it and smell it,
all those years ago
Oohohohoo Oohohohoo Oohohohoo
She touched my face and called me her lover,
I never thought that I'd need another oh !
Your cool suburban sun tan, you're fooling everyone,
you win some, you lose some
you win some, you lose some
Now it's gone, now it's gone, you win some, you lose some.
Now it's gone, now it's gone, you win some, you lose some.
Now it's gone, now it's gone, you win some, you lose some.
Now it's gone, now it's gone, you win some, you lose some,
win some
