Jimmy has a girlfriend

They play in the schoolyard

He gives her his cookie at lunch

She wears her hand-me-down

Faded flannel run-arounds

Jimmy he has more than enough

But money doesn't catch a ball and

That's what matters after all here



CHORUS:

They didn't set the boundaries

They didn't draw that line

They only know how they feel inside

Maybe they're young and learnin'

Oh no but they're no fools

Here in their little world

Love rules



Jimmy's outa school now

He's gettin' married

Met the girl he's been dreamin' of

'Round here the locals frown

On people from her side of town

They know how to make it rough

The only thing that's goin' down

Is the love that they have found here



REPEAT CHORUS

Oh sweet blindness

All those lines just fade away

It only starts when your heart leads the way



REPEAT CHORUS
