[Verse 1]
Vintage tee
, brand new ph
one
High heels
on cobblestone
s
When you ar
e young they a
ssume you know
nothing
Sequined sm
ile, black lip
stick, sensual
politics
When you ar
e young, they
assume you kno
w nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
But I knew
you, dancin' i
n your Levi's
Drunk under
a streetlight
, I
I knew you,
hand under my
sweatshirt
Baby, kiss it better, I
[Chorus 1]
And when I
felt like I wa
s an old cardi
gan
Under someo
ne's bed
You put me
on and said I
was your favor
ite
[Verse 2]
A friend to
all is a frie
nd to none
Chase two g
irls, lose the
one
When you ar
e young, they
assume you kno
w nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
But I knew
you
Playing hid
e-and-seek and
Giving me y
our weekends,
I
I knew you
Your heartb
eat on the Hig
h Line
Once in twenty lifetimes, I
[Chorus 2]
And when I
felt like I wa
s an old cardi
gan
Under someo
ne's bed
You put me
on and said I
was your favor
ite
[Break]
[Verse 3]
To kiss in
cars, and down
town bars
Was all we
needed
You drew st
ars around my
scars
But now I'm
bleedin'
'Cause I kn
ew you
Steppin' on
the last trai
n
Marked me l
ike a bloodsta
in, I
I knew you
Tried to ch
ange the endin
g
Peter losin' Wendy, I
I knew you
Leavin' lik
e a father, ru
nnin' like wat
er, I
When you ar
e young, they
assume you kno
w nothing
[Bridge]
But I knew
you'd linger l
ike a tattoo k
iss
I knew you'
d haunt all of
my what-ifs
The smell o
f smoke would
hang around th
is long
'Cause I kn
ew everything
when I was you
ng
I knew I'd
curse you for
the longest ti
me
Chasin' sha
dows in the gr
ocery line
I knew you'
d miss me once
the thrill ex
pired
And you'd b
e standin' in
my front porch
light
And I knew
you'd come bac
k to me
And you'd c
ome back to me
And you'd c
ome back to me
And you'd c
ome back
[Chorus 3]
And when I
felt like I wa
s an old cardi
gan
Under someo
ne's bed
You put me
on and said I
was your favor
ite
