Lyrics:
All my short, little life
I've loved her
She'd meet me
Under the bleachers
But the teachers
The teachers
Won't leaver her
Alone
All my elephant life
I've loved her
Wanting
To save her
From the creatures
The creatures
Who keep her
At home
To meet her
To meet her
To see where
It'd lead
All my short, little life
I've loved her
I've loved her
I've loved myself
