Starter Lyrics

Beginning drafts/ideas for this little song I mentioned in the last post:

Teenage dreams of hearts and rainbows
and having that magical first kiss
uncomfortable, so awkward, awkward
never imagined a life like this.

Look out girls,
the wolves are coming,
hide your hearts
they're hungry and cunning.

I then talked myself out of this rhyme scheme and tried it another way:

Teenage dreams of rainbows and hearts
touching was such and uncomfortable part.
Imagining the magical first kiss,
never dreamed of a life like this.

The wolves are coming
Got to keep running
Hide the jewels
they want from you.

So, I'm not sold on either version...but, still working with this.  I came up with one other section (bridge, perhaps):

You left your heart in his hands
said, "take this for me,
and keep it safe.
I don't need it where I'm going."
Run, boy,
the wolves are coming.
Don't let them find you.

Yeah, back to the notebook.  Needs work.  :)
