Without shame

Two outfits then to my name

You'd end up in one when you'd stay

We had nowhere to go

And every desire for going there

I heard once

It's the comforts that make us feel numb

We'd go out with no way to get home

And we'd sleep on somebody's floor

And wake up feeling like a millionaire

Wish I'd known it was just our turn, being blamed for a world we had no power in (We just got by)

But we tried

You and I had nothing to show, but the best of the world in the palm of our hands (We didn't know anything)

And darling, I haven't felt it since then

I don't know how the feeling ended

But I know being reckless and young

Is not how the damage gets done

One time we would want for nothing

One time we had it all, love

We knew what our love was worth

When we had nothing

Now we're always missing something

I miss when

I miss when we did not need much

And oh, if the car ran, the car was enough

If the sun shone on us, it's a plus

And the tank was

Always filled up

Only enough for our getting there

(And you flew away) That first car was like wings on an angel

Before the whole wide world got too thin

(From me then) I swear goodwill kept up the engine

You were steering my heart like a wheel in your hands (Turn back)

And, darling, I haven't felt it since then

I don't know how the feeling ended

But I know being reckless and young

Is not how the damage gets done

Why did we ever run

Before our chance was gone?

Why did we ever run

Before our chance was gone?

All I needed was someone

When the whole wide world felt young

All I needed was someone

When the whole wide world felt young
