Nearly Blew My Head Off

The magic of love in those early years So intense, so filled with suspense What would it be like, that very first kiss The feeling was so so intense Just about more than I could bare The anticipation, the longing to know What all the older guys were raving about “Making out” in the back row of the show Eventually my time did finally arrive Nearly blew my head off my shoulders And that was only my very first kiss What came later made me utterly smoulder Won't go into detail but holy frigging crap Sure made my temperature rise Got all sweaty, totally forgot who I was Greeted all my friends with high fives Then I knew what all the fuss was about Sure haven't forgotten it since In fact, I consider myself a professional now Could teach about love I'm convinced Those fun filled days have long since departed Only memories are left to remember But holy cadoodle what a wonderful journey As I'm nearing my month of December
