Lyrics

We used to drive 'til the gaslight screamed
Never cared what the world believed
Radio up, nowhere to be
Just you and me, seventeen
Spinning tales like the world was ours
Shooting stars in a parking lot
Told the future like we had a map
No clue where we were, and that was that
Now the coffee's cold, the rent is late
And growing up just overstayed
But if I close my eyes, I swear
I'm back there
Back when it was easy
When the nights were ours to burn
Kicking back watching TV
Just waiting for the world to turn
No bills, no plans, no safety nets
Just reckless hearts and cigarettes
Tell me, do you ever miss it too?
Back when it was easy, me and you
Taped up Polaroids on bedroom walls
Skipping stones and missing calls
Riding bikes with no clear end
Never needed to pretend
Chalk on pavement, hearts on sleeves
Swore we'd never have to leave
Now those streets feel so far gone
Like we blinked and they moved on
Now the coffee's cold, the rent is late
And growing up just overstayed
But if I close my eyes, I swear
I'm back there
Back when it was easy
When the nights were ours to burn
Kicking back watching TV
Just waiting for the world to turn
No bills, no plans, no safety nets
Just reckless hearts and cigarettes
Tell me, do you ever miss it too?
Back when it was easy, me and you
Maybe we were fools, or maybe we were free
Running on hope and cheap caffeine
But I'd trade these grown-up dreams tonight
To be tangled in those teenage lights
Back when it was easy
When the nights were ours to burn
Kicking back watching TV
Just waiting for the world to turn
No bills, no plans, no safety nets
Just reckless hearts and cigarettes
Tell me, do you ever miss it too?
Back when it was easy, me and you
