I
knew the day that we met
It would never last.
Trouble with Peter is
He moves on too fast.
He started with Wendy
Then he got with Jane,
Moved on from Alice,
Now it’s what’s her name.
You saved me from Peter’s childish games.
I didn’t know that it would be in vain.
You were my Rufio,
I was Peter’s Jane.
Since you’ve moved away
Nothing’s been the same.
You were my whirlwind,
I was your shining star,
But since we’ve been apart
You’ve been alone in the dark.
When we first met you were hiding
Behind a mask.
Just like Peter -
How long did you think you’d last?
You came on so strong,
But then you pulled away.
When you returned,
Oh, how I wished you’d stay.
You saved me from Peter’s childish games.
You promised you wouldn’t cause me so much pain.
You were my Rufio,
I was Peter’s Jane.
I confess I miss your kisses
In the pouring rain.
You were my whirlwind,
I was your shining star.
How does thirteen miles
Feel so impossibly far?
There was no shouting,
No, you’d never complain.
There was no asking you,
“What’s her name?”
Communication faded,
Now we’re incomplete.
Only left with memories,
All so bittersweet.
You were my Rufio,
I was Peter’s Jane.
Since you’ve moved away
Nothing’s been the same.
You were my whirlwind,
I was your shining star,
But since we’ve been apart
You’ve been alone in the dark.
You were my Rufio,
I was Peter’s Jane.
I confess I miss your kisses
In the pouring rain.
You were my whirlwind,
I was your shining star.
How does thirteen miles
Feel so impossibly far?
