Used to Be New

There's a picture of you on my nightstand that's covered in dust
There's a little black dress in the closet
You haven't put on in months
Now our date nights aren't what they looked like
When we were wild and head over heels
Everything's a little more real

Growing up and getting older
We might not shine but we're still golden

We used to be new
Then we got used
To everything being a little too easy
Turns out what we needed
Was a few bumps in the road

Had some livin' to do
Some things to go through
Together we make the most of changing
Cause we get better as we go
Even better than
When we used to be new

There's a pile of mail on the bar cart
Where there used to be wine
Now we're sharing an address, bought a new mattress
Cutting the grass all the damn time
It's not as romantic but we're making plans that
Are bigger than any we've ever made
Yeah there's a little one (moon) on the way

We used to be new
Then we got used
To everything being a little too easy
Turns out what we needed
Was a few bumps in the road

Had some livin to do
Some things to go through
Together we make the most of changing
Cause we get better as we go
Even better than
When we used to be new

When I'm reminiscing sometimes I miss that other life
But the past is the past and no matter where we're at
It's you and I

We used to be new
Then we got used
To everything being a little too easy
Turns out what we needed
Was a few bumps in the road

Had some livin to do
Some things to go through
For the lifetime that we're making
Together we make the most of changing
Cause we get better as we go
Even better than
I still remember
When we used to be new
