Just Kids

Picture your future and tell me who you see, you know you'd get no blame from me If you were thinking of somebody else tonight Talk to me, please talk to me, help me be the one that you see, and maybe we can make things right See I know that I've hurt you but I know that given time I could make you see how lovely things were before When I held your hand and you told me that you loved me One mad idea, lost to the years, and now suddenly we're here Older, wiser, poorer, and with greying hair But, having battled through our childish fears only to find the coast was never clear We were suddenly so painfully aware That maybe I was just a silly boy and you'd just been a silly girl having too much fun to see what a mess we've made of everything Since I first held your hand and you told me that you loved me I used to make you laugh with my silly jokes, we've loved and fought and built and broke And we've slept under the stars. So if I put my arm round you and wrote some silly song to help me cope Would you still think we were gone too far 'Cause I've known you could do better since back when we were just kids, so I've felt so guilty that maybe I screwed things up for both of us When I held your hand and you told me that you loved me. I'm tired and it's late, stuck on all of my mistakes So smack my hands and send me off to bed I promise I'll be better tomorrow When I've had a chance to clear my head
