Almost out of adolescence and into a world we didn`t know
Not necessaryly love but in trouble with a fire down below
Looking back for a feeling it`s just something far away and long ago
I can still recall the name but she`s really someone I don`t even know
But she was right for the time
She was right for the time but time has a way of moving on
I do recall a gypsy lady and a younger man in over his head
I was her believer taken in by every loving word she said
It was there for the first time the sweet and the bitter taste of love
When you`re young and alive too much never seems to be enough
It seems the young and the innocent are drawn like a moth to a flame
To the wild and the reckless believing they are one in the same
She never found a way to separate the good from the bad
And she never understood that love was all we ever really had
She was right for the time but time has a way of moving on
With her eyes on tomorrow one day she turned around and I was gone
I`d have to say in a way she just might be better off alone
She was right for the time but time has a way of moving on
