She smiled and said
"If you are who I think you are
I'd really like to meet you"
I laughed and said
"If you are what I think you are
I'd like to meet you too"
She said, "You've taught me lots of things
But I'll bet there's some things
That I could teach you
And though you don't know me
I sure know you"
"Cause you are my childhood hero", she said
"I got all your records
I know all your songs
And I got your picture
Tacked over my bed
And you know I once wrote you a letter", she said
"And I don't believe
That a night that was spent
By a girl with her childhood hero
Could ever be wrong"
A thousand songs
A hundred poems
And a half of fifth two Chivas Regal later
While my picture on the wall looked down
And winked at me
As if the bastard knew
And he listened as she whispered
"Hold me close
So I can dream about this later
When you've forgotten me
I'll remember you"
"Cause you are my childhood hero", she said
"I got all your records
I know all your songs
I got your picture
Tacked over my bed
And you know I once wrote you a letter", she said
"And I don't believe
That a night that was spent
By a girl with her childhood hero
Could ever be wrong"
