A heartfelt reminiscence about the joys and struggles of teenage years in a small country town. This song captures the magic of first love, friendships, and the bittersweet experience of hiding one's true self, all framed against the backdrop of late-night adventures and laughter filled memories.
Verse 1:
In the small town where the stars shine bright,
We’d sneak out at midnight, laughter taking flight.
Running through streets, feeling wild and free,
Dreaming of forever, just you and me.
Chorus:
Oh, those whispers of the quarry,
Where secrets were kept and hearts felt sorry.
Fell in love with my best friend’s soul,
In those twilight hours, it made me whole.
Verse 2:
Old movie screens lighting up the night,
Sharing popcorn, holding hands so tight.
Talking ‘til dawn, with the sun on our skin,
Every moment felt like we could win.
Chorus:
Oh, those whispers of the quarry,
Where secrets were kept and hearts felt sorry.
Fell in love with my best friend’s soul,
In those twilight hours, it made me whole.
Bridge:
But hiding in shadows, kept my heart at bay,
Wishing for a time when I could show the way.
So much love, yet aching inside,
Running from the truth that I couldn’t confide.
Verse 3:
Playing outside, stars twinkling in sight,
Holding onto laughter, holding on tight.
But in the silence, oh, it still haunts me,
All those feelings locked up, waiting to be free.
Chorus:
Oh, those whispers of the quarry,
Where secrets were kept and hearts felt sorry.
Fell in love with my best friend’s soul,
In those twilight hours, it made me whole.
Outro:
So here’s to those nights and the love we knew,
In the small country town where our dreams grew.
With laughter and tears, we faced it all,
And through it all, forever I’ll call.

Reminiscing about teen years in a small country town. There's a quarry we'd used to play in. Fell in love with my best friend. Go to the movies at midnight showing. Talk until the morning, and the sun came up. Laughing. Playing outside late in the night, laughing. So much laughing, so much love. so much heart ache. Hidden my sexuality through all those years.
