Varsity Blues Lyrics by Clayton Mullen

That senior christ parking lot
I’d always save you a spot
Don’t tell me that you forgot
We bet our lives on it
You weren’t the homecoming queen
But, baby, you were to me
Of all the boys on the team
I was the one you wanted

Ooh, went everywhere together
Thought it would last forever

You closed your eyes, we kissed at the dance
Friday night lights, yeah, we were the champs
You in the bleachers wearing my 22
We won the game but I lost you
Varsity blues
Varsity blues

Dropped off my letterman jacket
That Tuesday right after practice
Did think about how it happened
You said you’re done pretending
Three states wasn’t that far
Penn State has stolen your heart
I watched you leave in your car
Like my whole world was ending
Wish I knew when

You closed your eyes, we kissed at the dance
Friday night lights, yeah, we were the champs
You in the bleachers wearing my 22
We won the game but I lost you
Varsity blues, yeah

I don’t remember the place
I don’t remember the score
I just remember your face
And that red and white that you wore
I still remember the song
I know it all too well
And the way that it felt when

You closed your eyes, we kissed at the dance
Friday night lights, yeah, we were the champs
You in the bleachers wearing my 22
We won the game but I lost you
Varsity blues
Varsity blues, yeah
