text
On June 3rd, “Desireé”, which he estimated to be almost twice as old as himself , approaches him “like the morning sun” and takes away his innocence ( Well I became a man / At the hands of a girl / Almost twice my age / And she came to me / Just like a morning sun ). The next morning she disappears as quickly as she came and has not gotten out of his head ever since.
