lyrics

Remember how we used to talk about all that’s happened on the bus
Those little stories, we adored, we sold our hearts for one too short

We found excuses for everything to sit by the letterbox and talk
For hours maybe more, we had something, we’d let it go

We had something, we’d let it go

We made up things, we laughed about the way we wore our fringes out
Times like these can’t be replaced, so pure, so true, didn’t even count

So pure, so true, didn’t even count

Sad I can’t recall everything, these men in coats say I’d forget
In time to come these memories, please hold my hand before it sets

How nice things were back then to live each day without pretend
There was no reason not to be anything but more than friends

We made a promise on the swings that one day, we’ll come to be
Take these masks off everything we’re meant to see, meant to be real

We’re meant to see, meant to be real
