Two Kids

Full-sized basketball court
Had to be home by four
But I spent my afternoons
Cross-legged, just watching you

Back when I was all yours
We're laughing on the floor
But my heartbeat's through the roof
Wide-eyed, like it's new

Remember how we'd leave our friends
So we could sit down at that bench?
They'd roll their eyes as we held hands
I never thought I'd ever see it end

Cause we were just two kids
With our untucked white shirts
Innocent, little grins
Never thought about the worst

Partners in crime
The talk of the school
But we never seemed to mind
As long as I had you

Though I hate how we messed up the way we did
Nothing beats the way we loved when we were just two kids

Running late to class
Took the long way heading back
Hopelessly distracted
From the way you got me smiling

The post-it notes, the inside jokes
Your jacket that I borrowed
Butterflies from the first date
Don't you miss it now that we're older?

Remember how we'd always stay
In your homeroom 'til we're told to go away?
Then sneak into the soccer field
But darling, you're my greatest escape

When we were just two kids
With our untied black shoes
Surging on adrenaline
As if we had nothing to lose

My favorite friend
My number one go-to
When I needed a hand
You gave your arms to cry into

Never thought I'd have to say
You were the one that got away
What about the dreams we shared
The pinky promises we made?

I would never blame the time
But maybe in another life
You got me flowers to my graduation

(Two kids)

When we were just two kids
Too young to be in love
But I knew from the day we met
You'd always have my heart

Despite all the lies
I say this cause it's true
That nothing beats the love we had
When we were just two kids
