Twenty Two

Twenty-one was such a fun age
Day drunk, hoping things don't change
Not one reason we should leave here
Lost on the beaches, stuck on the season
Where did they go? I thought we could stay

How do you taste
The salt and the lime
On your lips and not think of the time
We got away
On your porch painted blue
I fell into you,
But you were gone by twenty-two

Twenty-nine was such a strange year
Grabbing love before it disappeared
Not much left here but a memory
Take out the slices on Venice Beach
You said you were made for me

How do you taste the salt and the lime
On your lips and I think of the time
We got away on your porch painted blue
I fell into you, but you were gone

How do you taste
That tequila we drank
I'm still wishing that we were the same
You got away and you love someone new
I like us better than the truth

You were gone,
You were gone by twenty-two
You were gone
You were gone by twenty-two
Our stories never told, still I can't let you go
I like us better than the truth
You were gone by twenty-two
