A=440: Shannon [lyrics]

A=440

Shannon

You were young then

Now you're older

Now the boys got their eyes on you

And as the young men

Become bolder

Don't forget who you hold on to

I see them talkin' to you

Wide eyed and innocent

They say they want to be your friend

But when they're talkin' to you

They got no good intent

Don't know where it starts but I know where it ends

Oh Shannon

Dream of me tonight

Keep your mind on your man and your heart out of sight

Shannon

Dream about me tonight

Dream about me tonight

Just dream about me

First your name and 

Then your number

Then they call you on the phone

Soon or later

You discover

------

I see the young men

With their cool eyes and punked-out hair

Like pictures in a magazine

They promise anything but

They're taking you nowhere

They talk about love

They don't know what it means

CHORUS

Can't you see the chance you're takin'

Girl you're getting in a dangerous game

'Cause I play for keeps when my heart is breakin'

And it's breakin' right now

As I call out your name

CHORUS
