Kids

(Album: Magic - 2018)

I saw a photograph
From ten years back
It's you and I, we're standing in the rain
Somewhere outside Atlanta
And I think my 12 seat van
Is right there out of frame

This was before I knew my way around Los Angeles
Before I ever cared about nice neighborhoods
We were driving through the night, sleeping on hotel floors
And thinking that we had it good

We were kids back then
Thinking we would live forever
We were kids back then...
We were wild and free
Taking on the world together
We were kids back then...
That's how we're always gonna be

Ask an old friend on my timeline
Who had lately been on my mind
We were close as blood
If we sat down for a drink
I think we'd forget our
Stupid reasons we lost touch
It was just because

We were kids back then
Thinking we would live forever
We were kids back then, you and me
We were wild and free
Taking on the world together
We were kids back then...
That's how we're always gonna be

All you got to do is blink your eyes
And the years go by like that
They fly right past
I don't want to wait to realize
Everything that you and I
Already had

Five thirty in the morning
And we're awake again
You are holding baby Jane
I lean in to take a picture
When it hits me
In 20 years I will look back and say

We were kids back then
Thinking we would live forever
We were kids back then...
We're so young and free
Taking on the world together
We were kids back then...
That's how we're always gonna be

We were kids back then
Thinking we would live forever
We were kids back then, you and me
We were wild and free
Taking on the world together
We were kids back then...
That's how we're always gonna be
That's how we're always gonna be
Oh, that's how we're always gonna be
