Married Young

Dirty white carpet, your tiny little apartment you paid $200 dollars for Drinking Boone’s farm wine, from old cracked glasses you bought from thrift store Yea everything was used, but to me it was new like those records laid out on the floor I didn’t know who Tom Waits was, but dammit I wanted more Oooooo I don’t even know if I’d recognize us You were loving every word rolling off my tongue I was hanging down from the stars you hung Oooooo The things you learn about the one you love When you married young Your shaggy brown hair and your clothes everywhere, how they always smelled like grease Makin’ $7.25 workin’ the drive-through at night then comin’ home and kissin' me We’d pick up and go on a Wednesday and blow off everything tying us down Making love in the back seat, baby that’s what made the world go round Oooooo I don’t even know if I’d recognize us You were loving every word rolling off my tongue I was hanging down from the stars you hung Oooooo The things you learn about the one you love When you married young The fights you lose and the fights you win The ways break and the ways you bend Oooooo I don’t even know if I’d recognize us You were loving every word rolling off my tongue I was hanging down from the stars you hung Oooooo The things you learn about the one you love When you married young
