Lyrics
TEENAGE SYMPHONY
I was raised in the days when the music was young
Something new on the old radio
The singers were stars, electric guitars
Made a sound that we just seemed to know.
They were songs we could sing and the very best thing
Was the rhythm that shook off the blues
Call it doo wop or soul it was all rock n' roll
and it belonged just to me and to you
It was music that spoke of what we were about
The soundtrack of our teenage years
Songs about cars, songs about scars
Lyrics that spoke of our fears
Some were all fun, some were just dumb
And some brought a longing inside
Some made us weepy, and touched us so deeply
The teardrops welled up in our eyes
It was our teenage symphony
Every song is attached to a memory
The top 40 chart was the beat of our heart
It's a teenage symphony
But when all's said and done it made us all one
And I don't think we'll ever outgrow it
As life presses in with the thick and the thin
When we hear it, we instantly know it
The memories connect, we begin to reflect
And old feelings come rushing back in
Time goes away it's an earlier day
And for a minute we're 16 again
It was our teenage symphony
Every song is attached to a memory
The top 40 chart was the beat of our heart
It's a teenage symphony
