Lyrics

By the time you were my age you'd already bought a house
And starting a family was something your were thinking about
You used to go on holiday 2 or 3 times a year
You had my whole life and more before I even got here
Do you think that maybe we would've been friends?
Do you think that maybe we would've been friends?
Cause I think once upon a time you were just like me
Your were drinking in a bar kissing somebody
You were always chewing gum just to cover breath
Cause you promise that you don't smoke cigarettes
Once upon a time you were sharing clothes
Six girls in a house you were young and broke
You refuse to wear a jacket, so you catch your death
From the club to McDonald's in a little black dress
It was 1983 but I think you were just like me
Sometimes I feel like you could never understand
What it feels like to judge you're body by your waist band
But maybe you don't get the credit that you deserve
And all the things that I cry about, you cried about them first
Do you think that maybe we would've been friends?
Do you think that maybe we would've been friends?
Cause I think
Once upon a time you were just like me
Your were drinking in a bar kissing somebody
You were always chewing gum just to cover breath
Cause you promise that you don't smoke ciiiigarettes
Once upon a time you were sharing clothes
Six girls in a house// you were young and broke
You refuse to wear a jacket, so you caaaatch your death
From the club to McDonald's in your little black dress
It was 1983 but I think you were just like me
You caught me by surprise in the car last night
When you said hey can we talk think I need some advice
And just for a second as the roles reversed
Coulda sworn that I was talking to one of my girls
Once upon a time you were just like me
Your were drinking in a bar kissing somebody
You were always chewing gum just to cover breath
Cause you promise that you don't smoke ciiiigarettes
Once upon a time you were sharing clothes
Six girls in a house// you were young and broke
You refuse to wear a jacket, so you caaaatch your death
From the club to McDonald's in your little black dress
It was 1983 but I think you were just like me
